Arms and Lipedema

WORTH IT

I’m over two weeks post recovery of arms following the successful surgery of the knee to ankle complex. I could not be more pleased! I suffer from Lipedema which attributed to tenderness in the arms. Dr.Su and his staff were fantastic. This is my second surgery with Dr. Su and he is skilled and consistent with his results. I was cautiously optimistic how the surgery would reduce the pain of Lipedema. Not only did the surgery come out beautifully, I had full strength back into my left arm and hand where I had been experiencing a great deal of numbness and weakness. The tenderness in my arms has also significantly improved and my recovery has been easy. Dr. Su has been really great to work with and I am grateful I can put my trust in his skills and experiencing in helping patience who suffer from Lipedema. It has given me so much hope that I can do something to help this disease from progressing and resume a normal, healthy, mobile lifestyle to raise my family and participate in all the sports and activities I have always enjoyed. I also am a dental designer as well an artist. I thought I was developing carpel tunnel in my wrist which was worrisome for my trade and love for art. Following the surgery I yet to experience any carpel tunnel symptoms. A week following my surgery, I was already back at designing and didn’t have to take breaks like I had to before due the surgery true to the achy and numbing feeling I use to get in my wrist and hands. I could only assume it is thanks to Dr. Su skill in removing the majority of the Lipedema fat that was contributing to the frustrating symptoms. It has been such a blessing and I could not be more grateful for this outcome. I also really appreciate Dr.Su’s staff. RAechelle who has been my surgical assistant for all my surgeries has been amazing in helping me during the whole process and I look forward to seeing Dr. Su and his staff each visit! For anyone suffering with Lipedema or think they might I recommend Dr. Su and his staff. There is hope and solutions to this debilitating disease.

Lipedema

Dr. Su and he’s staff are fantastic. Dr. Su is really skilled at what he does and his results are consistent. He is passionate about his work and between him and his staff I knew I was in good hands. He treated my lipedema via lymph-sparing liposuction from the knee complex to ankle complex. I have had amazing results and relief from the pain in just the first few days post-recovery. It has changed my life.
