Buffalo hump removal
A hump of fat that develops between the shoulders at the back of the neck is often referred to as a buffalo hump. A buffalo hump is not normally a serious condition, but it is important to assess its cause before determing a course of treatment.
Cosmetic surgery can remove the fat deposit. However, if the underlying cause is not identified and treated, the deposit may reform.
