Lipedema is a chronic medical condition characterized by abnormal accumulation of fat cells in the legs, arms, and sometimes torso, causing disproportionate swelling, pain, and mobility issues. This condition primarily affects women and is often misdiagnosed as obesity or lymphedema. Lipedema treatment requires specialized surgical intervention, typically through advanced liposuction techniques designed to remove the diseased fat tissue while preserving the lymphatic system and improving quality of life.
Lipedema treatment requires specialized surgical techniques that differ significantly from cosmetic liposuction. While regular liposuction focuses on aesthetic contouring, lipedema surgery is a medical procedure aimed at removing diseased fat tissue that causes pain and functional impairment. The techniques used must preserve the lymphatic system and address the specific characteristics of lipedema fat, which is more fibrous and contains more fluid than normal fat. Only surgeons experienced in lipedema treatment should perform these procedures to ensure optimal outcomes and minimize complications.
