translates into attention to individual needs to propose personalized care pathways in which every choice results from collaboration between specialists and the patient. An accurate and timely diagnosis is essential to approach lipedema and not confuse it with other conditions.
\nThe Melittaklinik Lipedema Center has specialized and gained significant experience to recognize and correctly frame the situation from the first visit. Lipedema progresses through different stages ranging from a slight increase in adipose tissue to severe deformities and functional limitations. Our professionals have identified three well-defined stages in order to develop the most appropriate therapeutic path for each. Surgical treatment is performed using innovative, state-of-the-art techniques such as vibration-assisted liposuction (PAL) which, respecting and preserving tissues, removes pathological fat safely, significantly reducing pain and improving joint function.<\/p>\n
Postoperative physiotherapy is entrusted to specialists who make the treatment a positive and valuable experience, useful for improving well-being, regaining mobility and confidence in one\u2019s

\n<\/span>This process consists of four distinct but well-integrated phases that accompany each patient with care and continuity toward treatment. <\/span>The initial specialist consultation is the first meeting that establishes, with precision and instrumental analysis when necessary, the diagnosis. Lipedema can often be confused with lymphedema, obesity or venous insufficiency. In this phase the type of disease and stage are determined.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nConservative therapies have the primary function of relieving symptoms. Once lipedema is diagnosed, treatments such as compression therapy and manual lymphatic drainage slow disease progression while alleviating symptoms, although they do not offer a permanent solution.<\/p>\n
\nLiposuction is the surgical procedure that, when necessary, can definitively address pain. In our center we perform procedures such as vibration-assisted liposuction (PAL), based on a minimally invasive technique that removes pathological adipose tissue without impacting the lymphatic system and promotes faster healing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit”
