did made a difference. I tried every diet and exercise plan I could find, but my legs only got
heavier. After my treatment at Aurora Clinic, I finally feel light, free, and confident – I’m
living my best life.”
— Anne, Aurora Clinic client
Anne is not alone. Millions of women around the world suffer silently from a little-known condition called lipedema. For many, this is not just a cosmetic concern – it’s a chronic medical condition that impacts daily life, mobility, and self-esteem.
What Is Lipedema?
Lipedema is a disorder of fat distribution that almost exclusively affects women. It usually develops during hormonal changes – such as puberty, pregnancy, or menopause – and causes a symmetrical buildup of fat in the legs, hips, and sometimes arms.
Unlike regular weight gain, lipedema fat does not respond to dieting or exercise. This makes it particularly frustrating for women who try everything, only to see their lower body continue to grow disproportionately.
Common symptoms include:
- Disproportionately large legs and hips compared to the upper body
- Pain, tenderness, or easy bruising in the affected areas
- A feeling of heaviness and swelling, especially at the end of the day
The Good News: It Can Be Treated
While a healthy lifestyle is important for overall wellbeing, lipedema fat cannot be removed through diet or exercise alone.
The only proven treatment is a specialised surgical procedure that removes the diseased fat while protecting the body’s natural lymphatic system. At Aurora Clinic, we use modern, gentle techniques that not only improve appearance but also help restore comfort and mobility.
The result? Patients experience less pain, more energy, and a renewed sense of confidence.
