What Does Lipoedema Look Like?

With a range of presentations and affected areas, there is no ONE body shape for lipoedema. In early 2023, Lipoedema Australia called for members to participate in a photoshoot with Attic Salt Photography, to help show the different ways lipoedema has affected their bodies. Here are some of the shots - thank you to all involved for helping to spread awareness!
