About Lipedema at Plano Clinic
Lipedema is a chronic condition involving painful fat distribution, often in the legs and hips, that can limit mobility and quality of life. Photodynamic therapy has been studied for inflammatory conditions and tissue support. Our clinic provides research-informed, physician-supervised pathways for patients seeking supportive lipedema care.
- Supportive assessment of pain, swelling, and mobility concerns
- Adjunctive non-invasive modalities aligned with photodynamic research
- Physician oversight with a focus on comfort and functional goals
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), previously known as low-level laser therapy, uses visible and near-infrared light (450–1100 nm) to trigger photochemical changes within cells. It has been studied clinically for more than 50 years as a non-invasive option for pain relief and inflammatory conditions.
Every treatment we offer — including Lipedema — is backed by scientific research and our expert Canadian doctors.
