Proof of Concept, Randomized, and Crossover Study, to Assess the Effectiveness of Two Types of Compression Garments in Lipedema
The goal of this prospective randomized crossover experimental study is to assess the effectiveness and tolerance of circular and flat fabric garments in stabilizing lower-limb volume in lipedema. It will assess the effectiveness of the garments and determine any differences between both types of hosiery currently used in routine clinical practice. Participants will be prescribed either circular or flat-knitted pantyhose and wear them daily for 6 months. After 6 months, they will change the type of garment.
