Specialized Lipedema Training Under Marcia Byrd, M.D.
Marcia Byrd, M.D. has been performing liposuction treaments for over 30 years. During her extensive experience, she has developed a specialized treatment process using (PAL) Power Assisted Liposuction and (WAL) Water Assisted Liposuction. For those with Lipedema, the distribution of painful fat deposits can be treated with a new liposuction technique called Vaser that can be used alone or in combination with the WAL and PAL techniques. It has proven to be quite successful in helping to reduce the symptoms associated with Lipedema. Dr. Byrd believes that VASER liposuction, in conjunction with WAL and PAL liposuction, may be an integral component of the solution.
Dr. Blackmon has been performing liposuction surgeries for over 10 years and has been quite successful in helping patients achieve their goals. When she joined Lipedema Surgery Center, she was eager to learn more from Dr. Byrd and her specialized way of treating lipedema patients. Dr. Byrd is known all over the world for her successful surgeries using her own specially developed technique. Dr. Blackmon now uses this surgical process and is successfully performing lipedema surgeries.
Dr. Blackmon is a very compassionate, caring and warm individual. She loves helping her patients achieve their goals and regaining their lives. Let her help you in your lipedema journey.
