Services
Power Assisted Liposuction
Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) utilizes specialized equipment to enhance fat removal precision while preserving surrounding tissues. This technique enables more efficient extraction of lipedema fat deposits from areas like hips, thighs, and arms. Patients benefit from reduced surgical trauma and potentially faster recovery times compared to traditional methods.
Water-Jet Assisted Liposuction
Water-Jet Assisted Liposuction (WAL) employs a gentle stream of saline solution to separate fat cells from surrounding structures. This lymph-sparing technique minimizes tissue damage while effectively targeting lipedema fat accumulation in the lower body. The controlled process promotes better preservation of lymphatic channels during fat removal.
Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction
Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction (UAL) uses targeted sound waves to liquefy fat deposits before removal. This advanced technique proves particularly effective for treating dense lipedema fat in challenging areas like the arms and calves. The controlled energy application helps maintain structural integrity of surrounding tissues during the procedure.
Revision Surgery
Revision surgery addresses residual lipedema symptoms or contour irregularities following previous liposuction attempts. Our specialists employ refined techniques to correct imbalances while maintaining lymphatic system integrity. This tailored approach focuses on achieving symmetrical results and improved functional outcomes for complex cases.
Dry Brushing Therapy
Dry brushing therapy serves as a complementary treatment to enhance lymphatic circulation post-surgery. This manual technique involves specialized brushing patterns to stimulate fluid movement and reduce swelling. Patients receive personalized instruction on proper technique to maintain lymphatic health between clinical visits.
