Understanding lipedema types helps us develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and improves your quality of life.
Fat accumulates between your belly button and hips.
This type affects the abdominal area, making it challenging to find comfortable clothing and maintain an active lifestyle.
Fat accumulates between your pelvis and knees.
This type is often mistaken for general weight gain, but the disproportionate distribution of fat is a clear indicator of lipedema.
Fat accumulates between your pelvis and ankles.
This type can cause significant discomfort and pain, making walking and other physical activities difficult.
Fat accumulates between your shoulders and wrists.
This type affects the upper body, leading to challenges in finding well-fitting clothing and experiencing everyday activities comfortably.
Fat accumulates between your knees and ankles.
This type is particularly challenging as it affects mobility and increases the risk of joint issues due to the added weight on the lower legs.

As you navigate your journey with lipedema, it's important to recognize its different stages and types. Lipedema stages range from mild to severe, affecting how your body feels and functions.
At this initial stage, your skin appears smooth, but you notice an increase in fat deposits in specific areas. The fat buildup is mild, and you might feel some heaviness and discomfort. Early intervention can help manage symptoms effectively.
As lipedema progresses, your skin develops indentations and a more uneven texture. The fat deposits become more noticeable, and you might experience moderate pain and swelling. Compression garments and manual lymphatic drainage can provide relief and support.
In this advanced stage, your skin becomes rough, hardened, and more sensitive. The fat deposits are severe, and you may find mobility increasingly challenging. Surgical options, such as water-assisted liposuction, may be recommended to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.
This stage is characterized by the development of lymphedema, where lymphatic fluid builds up in addition to the fat deposits. This combination leads to significant swelling, pain, and limited mobility. A comprehensive treatment plan involving both surgical and non-surgical interventions is essential.

Results are provided by Lipedema Team and are based on a scientific model for predicting Lipedema but reflect your self-reported symptoms only. Professional medical evaluation is strongly advised for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Your responses indicate 54.41% probability of Lipedema. The symptoms you've described are not typically associated with this condition. However, if you're experiencing persistent discomfort or have concerns, it's always wise to stay informed about your health.
Your responses indicate 54.41% probability of Lipedema. While this doesn't confirm a diagnosis, it suggests that some of your symptoms align with those of Lipedema. A professional evaluation would be beneficial to determine the cause of your symptoms and discuss potential next steps.
Your responses indicate 54.41% probability of Lipedema. This means many of your reported symptoms closely match those typically seen in Lipedema cases. We strongly recommend scheduling a consultation with our specialized team for a comprehensive evaluation.
