Dr Martin Schreiber about lipoedema in Berlin

„Lipoedema is not just about a change in body shape. Many patients suffer from pain, a feeling of tightness and restrictions in everyday life. In Berlin, it is important for us to first make a clear diagnosis and discuss together whether surgical treatment makes sense.“

Lipoedema surgery in Potsdam - important questions & answers

Is lipoedema treated in all women?

All the important factors are included in a consultation so that the doctors can gain an overview. The initial consultation takes place without any time pressure or stress. You can therefore feel at ease at all times. Your personal medical history is also relevant for the application. Finally, the specialist will decide whether lipoedema surgery is relevant for you. It is therefore quite possible that lipoedema surgery may not be necessary due to the findings.

What exactly does the doctor look for during the preliminary consultation?

As this is a surgical procedure, a lot of questions are naturally asked in advance. Only if the non-surgical/conservative options have been exhausted is there nothing to stop the operation. Bring older photos or measurements of your girth and body weight with you. The doctor will then decide together with you whether surgery is the best option or what other options are available.

Which type of anaesthesia is recommended for lipoedema surgery in Berlin?

Depending on the findings, you can choose whether you would like a local anaesthetic, twilight sleep or a general anaesthetic. You will always be looked after by an experienced team consisting of anaesthetists and nursing staff. After the procedure, you will be taken to the recovery room.

What happens after lipoedema surgery in Berlin?

Once the operation has been performed, you will be taken to the recovery room the next moment. There you will be given time to recover. When your circulation etc. is stable, you will be taken to your room on the ward. If you have any further questions afterwards, you can of course contact our team at any time.
