Closed Fund liposuction for Lipoedema sufferers on the NHS

Closed on

Lipoedema can cause life-long pain, and have an adverse effect on sufferers mental health. We want the Government to provide funding to make liposuction available for people with Lipoedema, so that cost doesn't prevent them from accessing this treatment.

Too often people with Lipoedema do not receive the recognition or care that they need. I have painful Lipoedema and this has affected my mental health. It is terrible that so many women are experiencing this condition. The Government must act.
