    Just Learning About Lipedema? For many the first step in their journey is getting into a good pair of compression garments...we recommend these for our patients before and after surgery. Click the links to purchase through Amazon:

    Good one! Esoteric, maybe, but thinking about getting this surgery, it's important to look at every angle you can think of.

    The value of mobility and less inflammatory tissue is immeasurable. This can allow women to move more, exercise more, and live with less pain.

      Totally agree! What if you could teleport yourself 10 years in the past and fix a problem before it occurred? Massive value to the patients

      Most patients use AirBnb, but there are also local hotels.
      For out of state patients I usually like them to stay around 4-5 days after surgery unless it's a high volume surgery (then I prefer 2 weeks)

    Can one do one leg at a time? I’d have to save up for each body part. I’m a widow with Medicare and I know Medicare won’t pay for surgery.

      I believe most surgeons prefer to test both body parts at the same time. Medicare will pay for the surgery in some cases but reimbursement to surgeons is low
