Lipedema is not just an esthetic concern but a severe chronic disease that almost exclusively affects women. It is characterized by abnormal fat accumulation in the legs, arms, hips, and buttocks, often accompanied by pain, tenderness, and swelling. Frequently mistaken for obesity, lipedema requires a specialized medical approach and proper diagnosis.
In the show “Zdravlje na kvadrat,” Dr. Mirko Dozan, a specialist in plastic, reconstructive, and esthetic surgery at IMC Priora, explains lipedema, its causes and symptoms, and modern treatment options—from conservative therapies to surgical interventions such as liposuction.
This educational report is valuable for anyone dealing with this condition or seeking to understand its diagnosis and treatment better.
