Post Surgery Massage
Massage
After you have any type of surgery, particularly a body procedure like a tummy tuck, liposuction, or a mommy makeover, you want to heal as quickly as possible. You want to feel better so you can get back to your daily routine, but you also are excited to see the results of your procedure more quickly. While rest, gentle activity, and following your post-op instructions are key, this treatment can acelerate the recovery period and enhance the final results of your surgery.
Post Surgery Massage
Why Is Lymphatic Massage Important After Cosmetic Surgery?
One of the side effects of cosmetic surgery is swelling. This is a normal inflammatory response and a part of the healing process as fluid rushes to the area to nourish it with white blood cells. Body procedures, particularly tummy tucks and liposuction, often cause additional swelling as excess fluid and fat cells will harden within a few weeks of surgery.
Lymphatic massage helps to move the fluid that’s built up and allows it to move back into the lymphatic passages where excess waste and fluid can be flushed from the body. This prevents fibrosis, which is the development of thick, fibrous scar tissue under the skin as well as reduces swelling and bruising.
Post Surgery Lymphatic Drainage Therapy:
What are the Benefits of a Manual Lymphatic Drainage?Your lymphatic system is key to healing, regenerating tissues, and removing toxins from the body. When the body has experienced stress, such as fighting off illness, healing from an infection, or experiencing emotional stress, the lymphatic system can slow down. Manual lymphatic massage helps “re-start” the system of moving lymph through the body and can provide a variety of benefits, including:
- More efficient healing from illness, injury, or surgery.
- Supports relaxation and relieves stress.
- Reduces scar formation by boosting healing responses.
- Removes excess water and metabolic waste from the tissues in the body.
- Reduces swelling and fluid retention.
- Improves skin quality and provides a more vibrant appearance.

What are the benefits of the lymphatic massage?
- It is intended to stimulate lymph nodes and increase rhythmic contractions of the lymphatics to enhance their activity so that stagnant lymphatic fluid can be rerouted.
- The Lymphatic Drainage massage is composed of four main treatments: stationary circles, scoop technique, pump technique, and rotary technique.
- It is effective both as a preventative treatment and as a post-surgery rehabilitation treatment, and has optimal results when it is combined with the other elements of CDT (Complete Decongestive Therapy).
- The Lymphatic Drainage massage also increases blood flow in deep and superficial veins.
- Other than lymphedema, The Lymphatic Drainage massage may be useful in conditions such as post-traumatic and post-surgical edema, and palliative care.
4
What is the lymphatic system?
- The lymphatic system is the system of tissues, vessels, and organs that work in conjunction to maintain fluid levels in our body, support immune function, and keep blood circulating.
- The system carries lymph, a clear fluid that contains proteins, waste, fat cells, and metabolized cells through the body which is filtered through the lymph nodes.
- Waste is removed from the body as clean lymph circulates back through.
- When the lymphatic system isn’t moving lymph through the body properly, excess fluid in the body builds up, causing edema and creating a puffy, uncomfortable look and feel.
- Lymphatic drainage massage was developed to treat lymphedema, a condition of accumulated fluid within the body that often develops after removing lymph nodes.
- A trained massage therapist can manually massage the body in a way to push lymph through the body, breaking up areas of swelling and reducing excess fluid in the body.
5
What does lymphatic massage do?
- When your lymphatic system doesn’t work correctly, because of cancer treatment or other diseases, you can develop a type of swelling called lymphedema.
- Lymphatic massage, also called manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), can coax more fluid to move through the lymphatic vessels and reduce this swelling.
- Lymph massage doesn’t have the pressure of a deep-tissue massage.
- “Lymphatic massage is a light, hands-on technique that gently stretches the skin to assist lymphatic flow.

The staff at Le Corps were incredibly knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable from the initial consultation to the final session. They thoroughly explained the procedure, its benefits, and what I could expect throughout the process. What impressed me most was not just the visible results but also the personalized approach. While the process did require multiple sessions, the gradual and consistent progress made it worthwhile. Additionally, the clinic provided valuable guidance on maintaining results through lifestyle adjustments, which I found extremely helpful. Overall, I highly recommend Le Corps for non-surgical body sculpting. The overall experience surpassed my expectations.
