“My name is Nora and I’m a school principal and a teacher by profession. I’d like to share a bit of my story and how I discovered I had lipedema. It all started when I began menopause. During that time, I gained about ten or twelve kilos in just three months. It was really tough for me because, honestly, I wasn’t eating excessively. I kept wondering, “What’s happening? Why is this happening to me?” I didn’t understand. My daughter, who was studying at the time, started guiding me. She said, “Mom, you need to follow a specific diet,” and that’s how we began researching and learning more about my condition.”

“My name is Ludmila, and I am a patient of Dr. Max and Dr. José Carlos. I’m making this video to express my heartfelt gratitude for the excellent care and support they’ve provided me over these past few weeks. I’m about to complete my third week since surgery, and I feel better every day. Honestly, the process has been much easier than I expected. I hope to continue feeling this good, and I’m thrilled with the results I’ve seen so far. Thank you so much!”

“Dr. José and Dr. Max made me feel truly understood and cared for. Their holistic approach improved my physical and emotional well-being. The support from the team and the community has been incredible. I now feel more confident and can enjoy life again”
