Abstract in brief

  • Lipedema is a painful, often underdiagnosed disorder involving symmetrical swelling in the limbs due to abnormal fat deposits, with symptoms like pain, easy bruising, and disfigurement, but its exact causes are unclear, though hormonal and genetic factors may play a role.
  • Pain in lipedema is a major issue, potentially caused by abnormal nerve sensitivity, heightened sympathetic nervous system activity, and estrogen effects, and it significantly impacts patients' mental health and quality of life.
  • While conservative treatments are debated, microcannular tumescent liposuction has been shown to be the most effective method for reducing pain and improving symptoms in lipedema patients.
