Lipoma in mouth is very very rare that too both sides. I think it is mistaken as Lipoma. With limited history you have provided it seems to be lichen planus. If it is lipoma or lichen planus not to worry much. Both can be treated effectively. In lipoma case it a benign tumor of fat tissues which rarely needs surgical removal. Visit another dentist to confirm it first.
