Lipedema Treatment

At 1Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Medspa, and Wellness, we specialize in treating Lipedema using advanced liposuction technologies. Liposuction is currently the most effective and promising treatment, as it permanently removes the diseased fat cells while improving body contour and mobility. Dr. Khan utilizes a combination of VASER®, SmartLipo®, and traditional liposuction techniques to precisely remove Lipedema fat, relieve discomfort, and restore balance to the body. The results are long-lasting, improving both physical function and quality of life.

Lipedema treatment in Hoboken, NJ, and Weehawken, NJ, is ideal for individuals who struggle with painful, swollen legs or disproportionate fat distribution resistant to diet and exercise. It’s especially beneficial for those seeking a long-term, minimally invasive solution to reduce pain and enhance mobility. Patients typically require multiple sessions depending on severity, with visible improvements becoming more noticeable over time as the body heals and inflammation decreases. Book your consultation today at 1Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Medspa, and Wellness, and discuss with Dr. Khan how a personalized Lipedema treatment plan can help you achieve relief and renewed confidence.
