Do you feel that your legs are disproportionately large compared to the rest of your body, while also feeling both heavy and swollen? Lipedema is a chronic condition caused by an abnormal accumulation of fat cells that most often occurs on the legs, hips, or arms. Living with lipedema can be both physically and mentally taxing, but fortunately, there is a solution to the problem.
Here at Estetikcentrum connected with expert surgeons who have extensive experience treating lipedema with excellent, long-lasting results. We offer liposuction as a safe and effective option that can reduce both pain and the feeling of heaviness, while being gentle on the skin and leaving minimal scarring. Even though the condition cannot be completely cured, the right treatment can give you a lighter body and an easier daily life. Stay tuned and we’ll tell you more!
How liposuction works for lipedema
We highly recommend liposuction as a solution for reducing the symptoms of lipedema, especially for those of you who live with the sensation of heavy, sore legs and a body that doesn’t quite cooperate. Our skilled surgeons carefully remove the fatty tissue from the affected area to reduce pressure and ensure you achieve a natural result and a more proportionate body shape.
For some people, liposuction for lipedema may be covered by the county council, depending on regional guidelines and the severity of the condition. But regardless of the route you take, you can always contact us for a private consultation where we’ll review your symptoms, goals, and circumstances to create a plan that truly makes a difference. However, we do not have an agreement with the county council.
Are there other ways to treat lipedema?
In addition to liposuction, lipedema can be treated in other ways, but these rarely produce the same long-lasting results. If you are in the early stages, compression garments can be used to reduce swelling and provide support. Lymphatic massage has also been shown to have some effect, as it increases blood circulation and thereby reduces fluid buildup.
These treatments can alleviate symptoms of pain and swelling, but they do not eliminate the fat. Therefore, liposuction is often the only option for those seeking long-term improvement
