Possible EMSCULPT NEO use to help increase muscle mass and lose non-Lipedema SAT as much as possible prior to undergoing liposuction for Lipedema, but worry given this article : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0306987720333260 and EMSCULPT NEO's method of action and resulting pathophysiology as explained in article listed below saying "apoptotic cells lose membrane integrity and are digested by immune cells" Reference: https://sa1s3.patientpop.com/assets/docs/241591.pdf

I honestly don’t think there is any indication for you to undergo Emsculpt whatsoever.

Good old fashion exercise by walking long distances and doing stairs is healthier, cheaper and more natural and healthier form of muscle strengthening.

The article your reference is simply a theory.

There’s zero respectable science backing up the authors claim.

If you want to do your due diligence before surgery then focus all your effort on finding the most talented and experienced board-certified plastic surgeon to do your procedure.

This includes not only getting someone who has the technical skill but also has the capacity to clearly demonstrate what can and more importantly what cannot be accomplished with liposuction for lower extremity procedures for those suffering with lipedema.

Best,
