Treatment Procedure

At Pratap Hospital, lipedema treatment primarily involves liposuction-assisted fat removal using minimally invasive techniques. The procedure removes abnormal fat deposits while preserving lymphatic function, ensuring reduced swelling and improved mobility.

Recovery

Most patients can return home the same day or after an overnight stay. Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are expected for a few days and can be managed with medications. Compression garments are worn for several weeks to support healing and maintain results.

Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity for 4–6 weeks and follow a healthy lifestyle to maintain outcomes. Regular follow-ups ensure optimal recovery and monitoring of progress.

Possible Side Effects
