Liposuction Before & After Case 114

Many women with lipedema seek relief from persistent leg pain and swelling. Our patient, a 42-year-old woman, came to us with concerns about discomfort and an uneven contour in her legs despite maintaining a healthy lifestyle. She faced ongoing symptoms that affected her daily activities and confidence. After discussing her options, she chose to pursue Lipedema Surgery in Atlanta at our practice.

We performed a single-stage SAFE liposuction procedure on her legs at the hospital under general anesthesia. This approach allowed us to target the affected areas safely and effectively. Her surgery focused on reducing the fat deposits causing her pain and limited mobility.

Following the procedure, our patient reported significant relief from her symptoms. She described improvements in comfort, clothing fit, and her overall quality of life. The results also enhanced the shape and contour of her legs, providing a more balanced appearance. These changes offered both physical and emotional benefits throughout her recovery process.

As a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in lipedema surgery, I approach each case with a focus on patient well-being and education. My background as both a firefighter and a physician guides my commitment to safety and advocacy. We use advanced techniques like SAFELipo® to support effective outcomes and better recovery experiences for our patients.
