“ I had my first lipedema surgery at Lipoedema Montreal with Dr. Edouard Coeugniet. This experience has been life-changing. I was originally scheduled to go to Spain (to see Dr. Burgos) for the procedure. Living in Ottawa, and knowing that his clinic is only a few hours from my home, I knew it was better to stay in Canada rather than go abroad. While it might have been cheaper to go to Spain or elsewhere in Europe, I prioritized convenience and I am delighted to be able to consult him whenever I need to. Dr. Coeugniet was undoubtedly the right choice: he is a lipedema specialist trained in Germany. I researched him and he is highly qualified. Furthermore, Dr. Edouard Coeugniet and his team take the time to explain each step of the procedure in detail. I highly recommend Lipoedema Montreal.

The pain is gone! I feel so much better. However, this is just the beginning. I was diagnosed with stage 3 lipedema... and I will likely undergo a second surgery for it in the future. If you're hesitating about having fat removed due to lipedema, hesitate no more! This procedure has transformed my life, and I am extremely grateful for the care I received. A huge thank you to Dr. Edouard Coeugniet. ”

“ I was recently diagnosed at stage 2. So, I went on the search... doing a lot of research lately to what would be the effective treatment option for lipedema. Lipedema Canada Foundation was a big help to me — where I learnt about lipedema awareness & advance treatment. I found that the surgeons in Canada and the U.S were all using vaser liposuction which is contraindicated for lipedema because it is a heated laser. WAL is much more gentle on the lymphatic system. ”

“ I had my thighs and calves done for lipedema fat removal. It was my first procedure with Dr Coeugniet. I had gone to a few different consultations in Ontario and by far he is the best.

I was so impressed with the fact that he is dedicated to helping women with lipedema in Canada especially here in the province of Quebec. Dr Coeugniet have removed about 5 litres of fat on my first surgery.

For anyone asking WHY just 5 litres? and why not 10 litres? As explained by Dr Coeugniet, this is a matter of safety guideline intended to minimize the risk of serious complications. It reduces the risk of complications, including fluid imbalance, blood clots, excessive blood loss, and local anesthetic toxicity during and after surgery.

He is doing amazing work in the lipedema field and we all have an opportunity to benefit from that. I appreciate his surgical expertise and experience and look forward to living my life, lighter and with more mobility. I would recommend Dr. Edouard Coeugniet and his whole team at Westmount surgery to anyone considering getting treatment for lipedema. I am so grateful for this experience. “

“ I have nothing but praise for Dr. Édouard Coeugniet and his team at Lipedema Montreal!

I am currently three months post-surgery for lipedema in my thighs, legs, and hips. It's rare to find such a skilled surgeon who also demonstrates so much empathy and compassion towards his patients. He made me feel completely at ease throughout the procedures. His operating room team is fantastic. They take exceptional care of you before, during, and after the surgery. Thanks to them, I approached the surgery with complete peace of mind, knowing I was in very good hands. My results are phenomenal, and I know they will continue to improve every day. I'm looking forward to my second liposuction next year, in 2026. Thank you, Dr. Coeugniet. "

“ Dr. Édouard Coeugniet's passion for raising awareness about lipedema is undeniable! He is truly caring and empathetic towards his patients. It's wonderful to have people who understand your condition and know how to treat it! ”
