Prof Dr Paul Heidekrüger about lipoedema in Munich
„Many patients with lipoedema have already come a long way before seeking specialised treatment. In Munich, we carefully examine what symptoms are present, what conservative measures have already been taken and whether liposuction can help in a medically sensible way.“

Lipoedema surgery in Munich - important questions & answers
How is the right lipoedema treatment method found?
Before a lipoedema treatment is carried out, there is a consultation with our specialists. All important factors are discussed, questions are answered and medical histories are analysed. The doctor will then determine the optimum treatment plan for you.
Why is there a preliminary meeting in Munich?
There is a personal preliminary consultation before every operation. This is the first step in finding out whether all “non-surgical options” have really been tried or whether conservative treatment measures have been exhausted. For example, photos from the past may also be presented. Body weight and body circumference are also important. The preliminary consultation for lipoedema surgery in Munich also serves to clarify whether this method is necessary at all. We will then discuss the surgical procedure and its potential risks.
Which anaesthesia method is relevant for lipoedema surgery?
In principle, all three common anaesthetic methods are conceivable. Local anaesthesia is used for less pronounced findings. However, you can also consider twilight sleep or general anaesthesia. The experienced and highly qualified team will advise and look after you so that the operation is relaxed and problem-free.
What happens after lipoedema surgery in Munich?
Once the surgical treatment has been completed, you will be taken to our clinic's recovery room. You will stay there until the anaesthetic has completely worn off. You will then be taken to your room on the ward and have the opportunity to contact a person you trust. If you have any general questions, you can of course contact our team at any time.
