In all of the literature that I've read regarding lipedema surgery, the surgeons suggested have been trained by doctors in Germany. The Roxbury Clinic in CA were specially trained by the German doctor but want over $30,000 - with payment up front! I'm willing to travel....but not to Germany!!

Answer: Several plastic surgeons are very comfortable with lipedema surgery Dr. David Amron, from Roxbury Clinic in California, is a very experienced Lipedema dermatologist who performs liposuction surgery.However, he's not the only one. Dr. Jaime Schwartz in California is also performing a lot of liposuction surgery, and he is a plastic surgeon. Dr. Gutowski is in Chicago; he's a plastic surgeon performing liposuction surgery also. I perform liposuction surgery in New Jersey. And I am a board-certified plastic surgeon. The technique of liposuction in Germany is different from ours. However, I cannot tell you that it is much better. Liposuction surgery for Lipedema does cost more because it takes significantly more time. However, in our experience, lipedema can be covered by insurance, which is what most of my patients get. So if you have commercial coverage, desire to have it done, and endurance to go through the Lipedema preauthorization process, we're happy to help you also.
