Lipedema is an inflammatory subcutaneous adipose disease of the arms and legs. Treatment should be comprehensive and include a low-refined carbohydrate diet, low-impact exercise, and medical-grade compression. These nonsurgical treatments should be started and maintained for the rest of your life. For women with symptoms not controlled by conservative treatments, surgery can improve pain, mobility, and knee and limb functions. It is possible that Lipedema Reduction Surgery can prevent...

Lipedema is a subcutaneous adipose disease of the arms and legs that causes pain and swelling. Lipedema is characterized by disproportionate subcutaneous tissue that is relatively resistant to weight loss. You may indeed have lipedema or it is possible that you have a different body type and cellulite.

Laser Liposuction can give you are good result
Aug 15, 2023
Aug 15, 2023
Diana, thank you for sharing your photos. From your photos I don't see any signs of abdominal flaccidity or diastasis recti. You appear to have normal torso and I would not describe the small roll on your lower abdomen as a pannus. I think you are a good candidate for a good result with Laser Liposuction. Wishing you the best.

Laser Liposuction is a better option for your abdomen
Aug 15, 2023
Aug 15, 2023
Thank you for sharing your photos. From your photos it looks like you are a good candidate for Laser Assisted Liposuction. Laser Lipo to your abdomen and flanks can give you a nice improvement to your waistline and more definition. The cost is comparable to CoolSculpting but the results are more reliable. Coolsculpting often does not work and can occasionally cause paradoxical adipose hyperplasia PAH. The Coolsculpting company would like people to believe that PAH is a rare occurrence...
