Surgeons have been successfully treating lipedema patients with specialized liposuction for over 15 years, mostly in Europe. Prior to performing therapeutic liposuction, your circulation should be assessed. Your surgeon must ensure that you have a healthy blood supply to ensure appropriate healing, as well as minimize any risk from the procedure from abnormal blood vessels that often are present in the diseased areas. No patient has the same anatomy, and in general, each patient should have a customized approach specific to their problem.
