Hello there.
As such there is no necessity of removing it unless it's causing problems in day to day activities or causing any problems cosmetically.
Lipoma is a benign tumor and rarely or never turns malignant.
But lipoma on the thigh can transform into liposarcoma.
Talk to your surgeon about this for further help.
