Pre-and -Post Surgical Care for the Lipedema and Lymphedema Patient

On March 30th, 2021, a panel of experts in the field of Lipedema and Lymphedema came together to discuss pre- and post- surgical care in their practices and outline general recommendations. The panel consisted of a mix of doctors and lymphedema therapists. Several on the panel are leading the charge to develop a standard of care for Lipedema, so clinical responses from this webinar were recorded to aid in that effort. The moderator, Dr. Karen Herbst, recorded the responses and recommendations made throughout the webinar and summarized them in this document.
