The notes · $49

Everything I figured out, in one place.

Everything I figured out running at-home device experiments on my own lipedema, pulled into one place. Not medical advice, not a protocol to copy, just what I did and how I think about it, shared in case it's useful. n=1 (a study of one: just me and my own body).

The free version of the proof lives on the numbers: the photos, the charts, the data.

What's inside

• The full session, all 14 steps, in the order I run them
• Which machines I use, what each one is for, and what I skip
• Original n=1 data and before/after, measured per thigh
• The cavitation generations, 1.0 / 2.0 / 3.0, explained
• The goops, demystified
• A measurement tracker spreadsheet
• What to expect up front, and the contraindications

What to expect, honestly

This is not a cure, and it's not surgery. It didn't transform me in a week, and in the first week I didn't see much of anything. What I've seen is slow, measured over months, in fractions of an inch, and it's maintenance, not a permanent fix. The work continues. I'm telling you this up front because the slowness is exactly where people quit, and because the loudest stories out there are either miracle or misery. What I found was neither.

On cost

The cheapest way in is a single 40k cavitation machine plus the consumables: ultrasound gel, vegetable glycerin, and a light body oil. My own shelf grew over years, well beyond a starter setup. The notes break down what each piece costs, so you can see what's worth it at which budget and decide for yourself.

A note on risk

None of this is risk-free. From my own homework, these are the situations where I wouldn't do any of it without clearing it with a doctor first: pregnancy or breastfeeding; a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device; metal implants, plates, or pins in the area (for RF); a history of blood clots or a clotting disorder; active cancer or any undiagnosed lump; impaired liver or kidney function; epilepsy; and any active infection, open skin, or wound in the area. Because lipedema can come with lymphatic involvement, a certified lymphedema therapist is worth looping in. The notes go into this properly. The short version: research it, and decide with your own providers.
