Is an internationally recognized and pioneering approach to the comprehensive care of lipedema. Offered at LipoXpert, this proprietary program is designed to help patients prevent, manage, and effectively treat lipedema at every stage.
The program draws on the experience of thousands of successful procedures. Every treatment plan is personalized to each patient’s unique anatomy, goals, and lifestyle, ensuring a truly individualized approach to care.
This integrated treatment method begins with an in-depth consultation and diagnosis. Depending on your specific needs, your comprehensive care plan may include nutritional counseling, lymphatic-sparing liposuction, plastic and reconstructive surgery, pre- and post-operative IV therapy, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), and Compression Decongestive Therapy (CDT), among other supportive therapies.
The surgical process typically begins with the application of tumescent anesthesia to prepare the targeted fat tissue, ensuring your comfort and safety. A round of precision liposculpture is then performed to remove the bulk of the fat, followed with Water Assisted Liposuction (WAL) to emulsify the remaining fat and release fibrotic tissue beneath the skin. A final refinement round of liposculpture sculpts the area further, enhancing contour and definition. .
To optimize skin tightening and overall aesthetics, the procedure concludes with advanced technologies. These tools contract the skin and stimulate collagen, resulting in a smooth, sculpted, and proportionate 360-degree transformation – tailored to your body’s natural shape.
The Balance & Proportion
Balanced and proportionate fat removal resulting in aesthetically pleasing body contouring results from the eye of an artist.
The Cosmetic Unit
The concept of the “Cosmetic Unit” to respect and sculpt each area of the body in 360° circumferentially.
The Safe Plane
Purely tumescent Water-Assisted Liposuction (WAL) to allow the surgeon to completely stay in the safe plane.
The Treatment Plan
Your team of lipedema specialists collaborate and combine their expertise from thousands of surgeries to provide you with a comprehensive lipedema treatment plan that is customized for your unique needs and goals. This integrated and personally tailored treatment plan ensures that you’ll receive the best possible care and results.
The Anesthetic Approach
Fat removal using only local and/or twilight anesthesia and in fewer procedures for rapid recovery and optimal results – no general anesthesia is required.
The 360° Approach
Highly specialized liposculpting technique using circumferential method – a technically engineered artistic three dimensional design.
The Five Step Multi-System Approach
Transformative results achieved through our technically advanced and engineered five step multi-system approach.
The Skill
Patients are in the hands of trusted experts with our board-certified dermatologic and plastic surgeons bringing years of experience in Lipedema surgery, complicated revision liposuction surgeries and plastic-reconstructive surgeries.
The Focus
Our expert surgeons are passionately dedicated to state-of-the-art treatment and results. Committed to training select surgeons from around the world in the most advanced techniques.
Advanced Lipedema Treatment’s philosophy is guided by the principle that our surgeons are treating not simply a disease, but a person with a disease. Prior to even meeting a new patient, empathy leads the way, with our surgeons holding a patient’s hand from the initial consultation through recovery.
At the core of our philosophy is science, a uniquely engineered approach, and technical process.
At the surface of our philosophy is beautiful artistry. Our elegant and skillful surgeons target disproportionate fat on the patient’s body, so that the patient loses weight, but does so in a perfectly balanced way. Achieving this requires more than just removing the accumulated fat. Equally as important is the careful attention and skill employed through liposculpture to achieve aesthetically pleasing body contouring and cosmetic results, and to maximally decongest the tissues. For maximum improvement in each patient, liposuction and liposculpture should accomplish four main goals: reduction of pain, improvement of symptoms, prevention of disease progression, and the best cosmetic outcome.
One of the most crucial elements for lipedema patients is that the surgeon approach it in a lymphatic sparing way. Dr. Feras Taqatqeh uses a lymphatic sparing technique combining Water-Assisted Liposuction (WAL) in a tumescent fashion, which allows for proper hydro-dissection of the fatty tissues, and properly prepares the area prior to liposuction surgery. Dr. Feras Taqatqeh has adapted this technique to safely anesthetize the patient using local anesthetic, with or without twilight anesthesia. Since the treatment remains solely within the subcutaneous layer of fat in each cosmetic unit, the diseased fat can be more safely removed using local anesthesia and in fewer procedures.
The benefits are faster recovery, less pain and bruising, lower risk of complications, and most patients are able to get up and walk around as quickly as 15 to 20 minutes after surgery.
