Look inside your skin™ and assess all aspects of lipedema and differentiate it from issues such as cellulite
With our skin ultrasonography service you can visualise all aspects of lipedema (subcutaneous fat accumulation, lipedema fibrosis, post-liposuction fibrosis, skin laxity, cellulite etc).
By seeing how your skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue looks from the inside you can make informed decisions, in regard to lipedema and its managment.

Get answers to your key questions about your cellulite, lipedema, skin laxity, fibrosis and fat
Our skin ultrasonography scan and consultation can offer you answers to the following common questions, among many others:
Is what I have cellulite, plain fat, skin looseness, lipedema, visceral fat or water retention - and how can it be improved?
I had liposuction / vaser / smart lipo / cellulite surgery, can you check if what I have is fibrosis or unremoved fat?
My skin is damaged due to RF microneedling / HIFU / extreme intensity RF / extreme intensity ultrasound / poly-L-lactic acid fillers, what can I do?
Why is my skin so loose and where to focus to make it tighter?

High-tech equipment and clear, science-based explanations in plain language
At LipoTherapeia we use the latest technology in high-resolution, high-frequency diagnostic ultrasound, specific to skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue. This enables us to clearly visualise skin laxity, cellulite, fat accumulation, lipedema and fibrosis.
Everything will be shown and explained to you clearly in simple terms and you can see and understand how the different structures inside your skin affect your appearance.
If there is scar tissue / fibrosis, those will be clearly seen and we can differentiate between fibrosis, water retention, fat, cellulite and skin laxity, both deep and superficial.

Diagnostic ultrasound images of pre-liposuction lipedema
Below you can see ultrasound imaging of severe fat accumulation, severe water retention, hypertrophic epidermis and weakened dermis of a ~50 year old pre-liposuction lipedema case.
Diagnostic ultrasound image of pre-liposuction lipedema on the front calf, No1
Diagnostic ultrasound image of pre-liposuction lipedema on the front calf, No2
Diagnostic ultrasound image of pre-liposuction lipedema on the front calf, No3
Diagnostic ultrasound image of pre-liposuction lipedema on the front calf, No4
In this case we see:
Hypertrophic epidermis (as a result of chronic inflammation in the area)
Extremely weak dermis, especially in images 2 and 3 (as a result of chronic inflammation in the area), which in most of the images seamlessly blends with the hypodermis
Severe hypertrophy of the subcutaneous adipose tissue (the hallmark of lipedema)
Severe water retention with “pools” of fluid between the hypertrophic adipose boluses
Diffuse but not severe fibrosis of the adipose tissue
The above images are different in quite a few aspects to the images below from a 30-year old case of post-liposuction lipedema.
Diagnostic ultrasound images of post-liposuction lipedema
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the inner calf, No1
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the inner calf, No2
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the inner calf, No3
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the inner calf, No4
In the above post-lipo images of a 30-year old lipedema case we observe:
Severely weakened dermis fusing with the hypodermis
Seroma, as a result of a recent liposuction, on the first image
Severe cellulite, especially on the 1st and 3rd images
Widespread scar tissue, as a result of liposuction, on the 2nd and 4th images
Not the excessive amounts of adipose tissue seen in the previous, older case, partially due to younger age and partially due to lipedema liposuction significantly reducing fat levels
Please note that despite the above issues, the lipedema liposuction was essential and successful, as it improved significantly both the patient’s appearance, risk of future complications and quality of life.

Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the front thigh, No1
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the front thigh, No2
Diagnostic ultrasound image of post-liposuction lipedema on the front thigh, No3
In the above images from the same case we observe:
Significant cellulite, weak but distinct dermis, scar tissue from the liposuction and diffuse mild fibrosis on the subcutaneous adipose tissue (1st images)
Weak dermis that fuses with the underlying tissues and severe cellulite on the 2nd image
Widespread fibrosis and adhesion, from a thigh lift scar after liposuction, with the dermis and hypodermis literally fusing, with consequent feeling of “pulling” and reduced range of motion
Below you can see an image of normal skin and hypodermis, for comparison:
Normal, healthy and cellulite-free example, for comparison
Images were taken at our clinic in London (LipoTherapeia, 10 Portman Square, London W1).
Images: U4(3), U4(5), U4(9), U4(3) • U5(2), U5 (12), U5(18), U5(19), U5(27), U5(29), U5(35)

Before and after pictures of the LipoTherapeia® treatment on lipedema
Below you can see images taken right before and right after a 50-minute LipoTherapeia® treatment (radiofrequency, ultrasound and phototherapy) on the calves of the second patient.

Calf lipedema right after LipoTherapeia® treatment
The difference in circulation and overall wellness of the tissues is impressive, in just 50 minutes.
(Of course, the treatment is not aimed at lipedema fat reduction - this is only possible with lipedema liposuction. The treatment is aimed at improving circulation, overall wellness and, with repeated sessions, cellulite and skin tightness.)
