Hello my name is Michelle, I am 53 years old and I come from the UK.
Over the past year, I have undergone three lipoedema surgeries on my legs at the LipoClinic Dr Heck, and I can honestly say: it has changed my life.
Before the treatment, I struggled for years with the physical and emotional effects of lipoedema – pain, heaviness, and feeling misunderstood. Finding the right support and care in the UK was extremely difficult. After a lot of research, I found the LipoClinic Dr Heck – and from the first consultation, I knew I was in the right place.
Today, I feel happy, mobile, and confident again. The results of my surgeries exceeded my expectation – but even more importantly, I finally feel seen and understood.
Because I know how overwhelming the process can be – especially when it comes to preparing blood tests, understanding compression wear, and traveling abroad for surgery – I have decided to support future UK patients as a patient ambassador.
If you are from the UK and considering treatment at the LipoClinic Dr Heck, I am here to share my experience, answer your questions, and help you feel supported every step of the way. No question is too small – I have been where you are, and I am happy to help.
