Today I'd like to tell you about a study by a group of researchers from Egypt that was forwarded by one of our listeners. The title of the paper is: Vacuum-Cavitation Therapy Versus Liposuction on Lipoedema in Female. It was published in the Bulletin of Faculty of Pharmacy at Cairo University in July 2013. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of vacuum-cavitation therapy compared to liposuction for the treatment of lipedema. The authors reported that they had seen one male patient with lipedema and cavitation was not useful for him.
