Totally over 25 years of dedicated, progressive expertise in the ever-evolving medical field, Dr. Herbst will offer her revolutionary lipedema nutritional plans, including her non-conventional approach to nutritional supplements as an integrated solution to the management and treatment of lipedema and other connective tissue irregularities.

Patients should expect unprecedented options, customized health and nutrition recommendations designed to be assimilated with Dr. Jaime’s trademark surgical interventions, and advanced medical breakthroughs for on-going health renewal. Dr. Herbst’s illustrious work, tireless research, and medical expertise in endocrinology, adipose tissue disorders, hormonal dysfunction, and metabolic disorders, including game-changing advancements in nutrition coupled with Dr. Jaime’s innovative, surgical techniques promise to provide patients a well-rounded, multiple hands-on, immersive approach to their long-term lipedema, lymphedema and connective tissue disorder management.

What to Expect

Current and future lipedema patients can expect a more customized, comprehensive action plan in the treatment of their lipedema symptoms and progression, while being introduced to revolutionary nutrition and dietary plans and body-benefitting supplements. While Dr. Schwartz will treat patients using his famous surgical and physically altering methods, such as traditional liposuction and manual lipedema extraction, Dr. Herbst will assist patients in lifestyle modifications and nutritional supplement therapies for more synergized, effective results. Because fat deposition disorders are known to signal hormone dysfunction, nutritional supplements, targeted medications and therapies may help boost a lipedema patient’s metabolism and reverse problematic deficiencies.
