Lipoedema surgery isn’t always just about liposuction. 👨‍⚕️

For some patients, removing excess fat is only one part of the treatment journey.

Depending on the severity of lipoedema, skin laxity and individual needs, procedures such as a tummy tuck, buttock lift or skin excision may also be considered.

At The Karri Clinic, Mr Karri takes an individualised approach to lipoedema surgery, recognising that no two patients are the same.

The goal is to improve comfort, mobility and quality of life, with treatment tailored to each patient.

Lipoedema surgery is often carried out in stages. The time between procedures allows your body to heal, recover and be assessed before moving on to the next stage.

Every recovery is different, so the timing of the next procedure is based on your individual treatment plan and clinical assessment.

Lipoedema treatment is a journey, and that journey can look different from one person to another.

Planning treatment properly from the beginning helps ensure that each procedure has a clear purpose and fits into the bigger picture of the patient's care.

The goal is always to create a plan that is appropriate for the individual rather than applying the same approach to everyone.

A busy week behind the scenes at The Karri Clinic! 🏥

Before every surgery, preparation is key. From reviewing patient plans to ensuring every detail is in place, our surgical team works closely together to deliver the highest standards of care.

Every procedure starts long before the patient enters the operating theatre, and it’s this attention to detail that makes all the difference.

Another busy and rewarding week for Mr Karri and the team! 👏

When it comes to lipoedema surgery, technique matters.

Water-Assisted Liposuction allows treatment to be approached with care and attention to the individual areas affected, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Lipoedema can be difficult to recognise, especially when you’re comparing your experience with what you see online.

Understanding your own symptoms and getting the right clinical advice can be an important first step towards knowing what’s happening and what options may be available to you.

Does lipoedema surgery always need to be performed in multiple stages?

Not necessarily.

Mr Karri shares the experience of a patient who was advised she would need three separate operations abroad, but whose lower limb surgery he was able to complete in a single procedure.

Every patient is different, and the number of procedures required depends on several factors, including the extent of the condition, surgical technique and patient safety.

The important message? Don’t be afraid to ask questions or seek a second opinion.

Understanding why a particular surgical approach has been recommended is an important part of making an informed decision about your treatment.

This before and after shows the result following WAL of the posterior arms, with 500ml of fat aspirated from each arm.

WAL uses a gentle, pressurised stream of fluid to help separate and remove unwanted fat while aiming to minimise trauma to the surrounding tissues.

Every patient is different, and results will vary depending on individual anatomy, the amount of lipoedema or excess fat present, and the treatment plan.
