Post Op Lymphatic Massages
Post-operative lymphatic massage focuses on areas affected by procedures such as liposuction, Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), and tummy tuck surgeries. For example, after a Lipo 360 procedure, the massage targets the front of the stomach and back—areas where fat was removed. This specialized technique is designed to aid the lymphatic system, which processes waste and absorbs fluids in the body.
After surgery, excess fluid often accumulates and hardens in these areas, causing pain and discomfort. Lymphatic massage helps reduce this by encouraging the drainage of fluid, relieving swelling, inflammation, and soreness. It also improves circulation, which promotes healing and results in smoother, firmer skin.
Key Benefits
​
-
Reduces Swelling: Excess fluid that causes puffiness is gently drained, alleviating discomfort.
-
Eases Numbness and Soreness: Stimulates blood flow, which helps restore sensation and relieve tenderness.
-
Prevents Complications: Regular massage minimizes the risk of complications like fibrosis (hardening of tissue) or seromas (fluid pockets).
-
Improves Skin Health: Encourages smoother and healthier skin by promoting blood circulation and breaking down scar tissue.
Long Term Benefits
Post-op lymphatic massage softens hardened scar tissue, stimulates fat and lymphatic fluid drainage, and prevents permanent complications like fibrosis. It’s an ideal treatment before or after surgical procedures, leaving the skin firmer, smoother, and more contoured. This helps clients achieve the “snatched” look they desire.
If swelling or inflammation persists, clients should consult their doctor to rule out conditions such as fibrosis or seroma. Early intervention can prevent the need for additional surgical procedures.
By incorporating these massages into the post-operative care plan, clients not only experience faster recovery but also achieve more refined results.
