Summary
This study is designed to gain preliminary information via a uniform protocol regarding the clinical effects of Vasculera in participants with lipedema and the possible role of the glycocalyx as a physiological target for Vasculera activity. It is anticipated that the results of this case study will inform the development of a formal randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial.
