Has anyone in the UK had a forehead lipoma removed on the NHS?

I (22f) have a forehead lipoma (subgaleal) and I am pretty sure it's growing as people are noticing it more. It is affecting my self esteem. My friends are telling me to go to Europe such as Germany to remove it as their parents did for their siblings who had some sort of thing on their face. My parents literally do not care. If I go private it will probably be in 5 or so years once I graduated and have a lot more spare cash which is why I want to do it on the NHS. My fears are noticeable scarring but I might prefer that over having a massive lump on my head.
