Surgical Technique

Dr. Byrd's integrated system for lipedema treatment combines effective therapy and her unique lymphatic sparing liposuction surgery. This specialized treatment has been developed by Dr. Byrd to safely remove the lipedema fat while protecting the important lymphatic channels. Her method can help treat even the most difficult of lipedema cases. The types of liposuction used include Tumescent Anesthesia, Vaser Hi-Def Liposculpture, Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL), and Water-Jet Assisted Liposuction (WAL).

Stages and Types of Lipedema

Lipedema is a condition characterized by the abnormal growth and distribution of fat in the lower extremities, arms, and sometimes the upper body. It is often misdiagnosed as obesity, but it is a distinct medical condition that requires specialized treatment. The stages of lipedema are as follows:

• Stage 1: Characterized by the presence of nodules or small fatty lumps beneath the skin.
• Stage 2: The affected areas become larger and disproportionate to the rest of the body.
• Stage 3: Symptoms escalate, and the impact on daily life becomes significantly more challenging.
• Stage 4: Lipo-lymphedema, where both lipedema and lymphedema are present.

• "I have completed my surgeries with Dr Byrd. I am so very pleased. Being from Texas I researched the Lipedema professionals and stood out. They helped with securing insurance from my provider. Every surgery was a good experience. Knowing that she studied with the professionals in Germany and now dedicates her practice to those who suffer with Lipedema was the biggest consideration. Outstanding office staff always willing to help. Great facility to perform the surgeries. All this led to me getting the help I needed. Thank you Dr Byrd. I now have Byrd legs!" - M.W.
