Lipedema Surgery
in Scottsdale, AZ

Lipedema surgery removes excess fat tissue from the legs to treat lipedema, a condition causing abnormal fat accumulation. It can ease pain, improve mobility, and lower the risk of secondary complications. Lipedema surgery is often called liposuction for lipedema.

Because lipedema involves significant fat removal across affected areas, the procedure is performed in a hospital setting. Dr. Mata will review whether you are a candidate at consultation, including medical clearance and any necessary insurance coordination.

Ultrasonic-Assisted Liposuction (VASER). Dr. Mata uses ultrasonic-assisted liposuction with VASER technology to address lipedema symptoms. This advanced body contouring approach is highly effective at targeting the affected fat while protecting surrounding tissues.

Power-Assisted Liposuction (MicroAire). A precise, vibration-driven technique that allows controlled removal of large volumes of affected fat, especially helpful in the legs where lipedema is concentrated.

Lipedema treatment often involves removing significant volumes of fat, which can leave loose skin. Renuvion skin tightening can be added to address skin laxity and enhance the final contour result.
