After Lipo, BBL and Tummy Tuck
These are the procedures we see most often, along with mommy makeovers and breast surgery. Early sessions are very light and hands-only. We work around your compression garment and position you the way your surgeon allows.
After Facelift and Rhinoplasty
After facial procedures, gentle drainage of the face and neck starts only once your surgeon clears facial massage. Bring their instructions: they decide which areas we avoid and for how long.
Fibrosis Massage
Firm, uneven or lumpy areas weeks after liposuction can be fibrosis. It needs your surgeon's assessment first. If your surgeon recommends manual work, we follow their plan with gentle, hands-only techniques, and we'll tell you honestly what to expect rather than promise to "break it up".
Swelling, Scar Tissue and Incisions
After surgery the body sends fluid to the treated area, and swelling can last for weeks. Light lymphatic strokes guide that fluid toward working lymph nodes, routed around incisions and drain sites rather than over them. As healing goes on, some areas can feel firm or uneven while scar tissue forms; we watch for that, keep the work gentle, and tell your surgeon if anything changes.
We never massage open incisions, and we don't use cavitation, radiofrequency or vacuum on post-surgical tissue.
A Typical Recovery Rhythm
Practices differ, and your surgeon's plan always comes first. A common pattern is two or three sessions a week in the first weeks after clearance, then weekly, and then as needed over roughly six to eight weeks. Some clients add a few sessions later if firmness or swelling returns. We adjust the rhythm at every visit and write it down for you.
When to Start and How Many Sessions
When your surgeon clears you — that varies by procedure and by surgeon. Most clients come frequently in the early weeks and taper as healing progresses; you'll get a specific plan at your first appointment. Surgeons can read how we work on our page for surgeons.
