Advanced Lipedema Treatment at The Roxbury Institute

Why choose an ALT Surgeon?
What truly sets Advanced Lipedema Treatment (ALT) apart is the comprehensive, in-depth multi-step approach. With ALT, Dr. Amron has pioneered a “three-dimensional circumferential contouring” approach to treat Lipedema, which views each body part in a complete, comprehensive three-dimensional fashion.

How is ALT with a Lipedema surgeon at The Roxbury Institute better than typical Lipedema surgery?
Our Lipedema surgeons (Dr. David Amron, Dr. Aria Vazirnia, and Dr. David Smart) treat each cosmetic unit one at a time, rather than breaking it up into different procedures and surgeries. This allows our team of uniquely trained Lipedema surgeons to remove the diseased fat from a particular body part in one single surgery and cosmetically blend the entire body part.
‍
‍Why is recovery time so much faster with ALT?
ALT surgeons avoid using general anesthesia which helps with the treatment of lipedema and cosmetic result while reducing risks and speeds up recovery time for the patient. Additionally, patients are typically able to get up and walk around as quickly as 15 -20 minutes after surgery.

‍Why are ALT results unique?
Lipedema is a complex disease requiring a specialized surgeon and unique liposuction procedure to treat. Therefore, liposuction for Lipedema is a very precise technique, and since the patient is conscious, it allows surgeons at The Roxbury Institute to stay solely in the “safe plane” within the subcutaneous layer of fat and perfectly position the patient. With this specific positioning of the patient, your surgeon is able to remove the diseased fat while achieving a functional and aesthetic result.

What Our Amazing Patients Say About ALT at The Roxbury Institute

“I am so excited to see final results!”

Dr. Amron is amazing! I had two lipedema surgeries with him in December 2017 and January 2018. I'm still recovering, but can already see and feel such an improvement. He is very straightforward with how the process will go and what expected results should be. The procedure was a little more painful then expected (maybe I'm a bit of a baby) so for the second one I opted for some more pain meds/anesthesia and I was much more comfortable during the procedure. His staff - in particular Evelyn - is amazing. They are SO caring, patient and helpful. The day after surgery can be a little tough and Evelyn's treatment and help during the entire process was amazing. I am so excited to see final results!

“Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Dr. Amron and his amazing staff.”

I opted to see Dr. Amron for my stage 2 lipedema surgery. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Dr. Amron and his amazing staff. I had surgery Friday on my upper thighs and first day post op I was able to see a difference. I know my full recovery and actual new legs won't take until about a year but I'm already grateful for him and his team. Evelyn is heaven sent, always answering my questions and she kept my parents posted through my surgery. They really do treat you like family. I walked in as patient, and walked out as family. Daisy and Nancy were awesome guiding me through surgery as I didn't use twilight anesthesia. Please never think twice about going to see Dr. Amron, he is the best there is with top notch care. He called me that same night after surgery to check on me.

“My legs and shape are beyond my expectations.”

I knew the minute I walked in the door Dr. Amron was my surgeon. My legs are just beautiful. He circumferential liposuctioned my calves, knees and thighs. They look so beautiful . My legs and shape are beyond my expectations. My fibrosis was so bad and I had so many nodules around my ankles. Dr. Amron used Vaser, WAL, PAL, and BodyTite. Right after surgery, even swollen, my legs felt so much better than before surgery! Feels like a load was just removed and my body was decongested. I really have no words for how happy and grateful I am. Dr. Amron and his entire team treated me with so much dignity. I'm still taking it all in. I look in the mirror it shocks me, feels like a dream. Lipedema has been the hardest journey of my life... I've never looked more forward to my life than before.
