What Are the Stages of Lipoedema? Lipoedema is a chronic condition characterised by the abnormal accumulation of fatty tissue, typically in the legs, thighs, hips,...
One of the things I hear most often from people with lipoedema is that they felt completely alone for years – no diagnosis, no answers, and nowhere to turn.
That’s exactly why I’ve created the Health Excel Lipoedema Awareness Facebook group.
A Safe Space for the Lipoedema Community
This group has been set up as a safe, supportive, and educational space for anyone affected by lipoedema – whether you’re still trying to get a diagnosis, exploring your treatment options, preparing for surgery, or managing the condition long-term.
You’re welcome to ask questions, share your experiences, and connect with others who truly understand what living with lipoedema is like.
Topics covered in the group include:
- Diagnosis and getting the right referrals
- Treatment options and what to expect
- VASER liposuction for lipoedema
- Surgery preparation and recovery
- Compression garments
- Lymphatic drainage
- Long-term management and lifestyle
Free Advice and Bi-Monthly Q&A Sessions
One of the biggest benefits of joining is access to general advice directly from me and my PA, completely free of charge.
I’ll also be hosting free bi-monthly Q&A sessions where I’ll answer questions from the group – whether you’re in the early stages of considering treatment, already on your journey, or just looking for some clarity and reassurance.
My goal is simple: to make expert guidance more accessible, to improve patient education, and to build a stronger, more connected lipoedema community.

If you know someone who might benefit, please share this with them. The more people we can reach, the more women we can help get the answers and care they deserve.
