MEET THE GUEST

Dr. David Amron is a world-renowned, board-certified dermatologic surgeon with over 30 years of experience and a leading authority in Lipedema, liposculpture, and revision liposuction. As founder and medical director of The Roxbury Institute, he has performed over 10,000 successful surgeries and developed the Advanced Lipedema Treatment (ALT) Program, placing his centers at the forefront of surgical innovation. His patient-oriented approach combines surgical precision with decades of clinical expertise to deliver life-changing outcomes for those living with Lipedema and related fat disorders.


WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

-Dr. David Amron’s 30-year journey treating Lipedema and how European media attention sparked his early recognition of the condition.

- Why Lipedema is so widely misunderstood, under-diagnosed, and often dismissed as simple weight gain or water retention.

- The genetic and structural root causes of Lipedema, including connective tissue defects, leaky lymphatics, and hormonal triggers.- How Lipedema fat is different from regular fat, and why traditional liposuction often fails or worsens the condition when done improperly.

- Dr. Amron’s patented 360-degree surgical technique and fibrosis-targeted protocols that address both function and aesthetics.

- His comprehensive care model at the Roxbury Institute, which integrates diagnostics, decongestive therapy, surgery, and prevention.

- The promise and limitations of GLP-1 agonists like Mounjaro, and when they’re most helpful in a Lipedema treatment plan.

- His new three-part supplement program to support lymphatic health, reduce inflammation, and improve metabolic function in women with Lipedema.

- The mission behind his nonprofit, the Lipedema Society, and how it's driving education, surgical standards, and insurance reform.
