Paradigm shift and International Consensus Document

Lipoedema: A Paradigm Shift and Consensus is an international consensus document developed by leading European experts to challenge long-held assumptions about lipoedema and promote an evidence-based understanding of the condition. The publication reviews current scientific knowledge, dispels common myths, and presents best-practice recommendations for diagnosis, treatment, weight management, psychological support, compression therapy, and patient care. It also introduces a new perspective on the underlying mechanisms of lipoedema and calls for a more holistic, patient-centred approach to management.
