There Are Typically Two Types
Of Patients We See
- You may have already been diagnosed with Lipoedema and started conservative treatment measures.
- You may have already had a consult or surgery with a cosmetic-focused surgeon and wish to gain a second opinion or learn more about what differentiates Lipoedema Surgical Solution.
- A consultation with Dr Lekich and his team will confirm your diagnosis and will provide a holistic approach to recognising and managing your enlarged legs.
- Dr Lekich and his team can provide ultrasound guided diagnosis for a full picture of your leg health and any underlying or co-existing conditons that may need to be considered to ensure optimal outcomes and to avoid complications during surgery.

- Surgical solutions are available to patients who have already undergone conservative management with class 2 flat knit compression. For patients that have not previously used compression Dr Lekich and his team will closely monitor a conservative management plan to enable a surgical solution if desired. The surgery is aimed at removing all the diseased Lipoedema tissue, aiming to arrest the disease.

Our Surgical Standard
We are a medical clinic, not a cosmetic clinic, focused on taking a holistic approach to your health for the best possible outcomes. Your health is our priority and our patients benefit from the aesthetic improvement that flows from the treatment of the medical condition.
Dr Chris Lekich is the medical director of Lipoedema Surgical Solution and Vein Doctors Group.
Dr Lekich has collaborated with the world’s leading Lipoedema Surgeon, Dr Heck, of Germany’s LipoClinic. Dr Heck has trained Dr Lekich in Waterjet Assisted Liposuction in both Germany and Australia. This technique of Lipoedema-Extraction surgery has been perfected over 14 years, now making it available in Australia.
Dr Heck and Dr Lekich have a common goal to bring awareness, diagnosis, treatments options and importantly, a surgical solution, to more women globally.
If a surgical solution is appropriate for your condition, you can be reassured that Dr Lekich has a long history of treating patients with complex leg conditions with the support of ultrasound guidance.
Dr Lekich has over 20 years of operating theatre experience ranging from complex microsurgery to intricate modern, non-invasive ultrasound interventions for the treatment of venous and lymphatic conditions.
