Dr. Su did lipo on my lower legs/calves in May 2023. I’m just still so happy with the results, I can’t imagine them looking any better. I can wear things that I never felt comfortable wearing before. Lifelong friends are just shocked with how good and athletic they look. I am SO happy!

I have always had column shaped legs (similar size from top to bottom). I reached out to Art Lipo for a virtual consultation on the complex, knee and calf procedure, received a timely response and prompt schedule. Everything from the first engagement until now, post op has been top notch. The procedure itself was well explained when I arrived and very minimal discomfort. The post op recovery was well explained the day of the procedure and more so during the day after follow up. I am still a bit swollen not a full two weeks out and my ankles have already gone down 1.5 inches and my calves almost 2 inches. I am so excited to see the full result in a few weeks. I highly recommend Dr. Su, the surgeon I chose as he was kind and clear with honest expectations. He is expensive comparative to many BUT he is an expert and it is felt throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend.

I called this office about the possibility of getting liposuction for lipedema. The secretary who took my call was condescending, rude, and shared that this office is self-pay and overpriced and aren’t interested in helping people get help with my disease. After reading the reviews it is clear that money is the only thing they are after- bye!

Fantastic team of Doctors and Staff. Exhibited a really high level of interest in my well being. Felt like family. The VSEL procedure i had done as already had a significant positive impact on the issues i am treating. i hate to speak to soon because the procedure was just 4 days ago, but i already feel some incredible changes. My energy level hasnt been like this in decades and my pain is significantly reduced. I feel so much gratitude.

I couldn’t be happier with the results just one month after my surgery! A lifetime of struggling with lipedema has finally come to an end, and it feels incredibly freeing to no longer feel ashamed of showing my legs in photos. From the moment I arrived at the clinic, I was treated with such care and compassion. The nurses were amazing—they stayed with me throughout the surgery, offering support, making sure I felt comfortable, safe, and truly cared for. I’ll never forget how one of the nurses held my hand when I was feeling scared. It made all the difference. A special thank you to Dr. Kardashian for being so professional, respectful, kind, considerate, and gentle. His attention to detail and genuine care for his patients made me feel like I was in the best hands. The results are nothing short of incredible, and I’m forever grateful for his exceptional work. For anyone else struggling with lipedema, know that you’re not alone. I understand how difficult the journey can be, but this surgery has been life-changing. I highly recommend taking this step if you’re considering it—it’s worth it. You deserve to feel confident and comfortable in your own skin.
