Advanced post-surgical recovery care designed and individually tailored to support healing following cosmetic procedures such as LIPO 360, TUMMY TUCK, BREAST AUGMENTATION, BBL, and FACELIFT.
Each treatment is tailored to your individual post-operative stage, incorporating Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), Myofascial Release, therapeutic cupping, and radiofrequency (RF) as appropriate.

What to ExpectYour session begins with a thorough assessment of your surgical areas and recovery progress. Your licensed massage therapist will guide excess fluid through specialized lymphatic techniques designed to support recovery. Warm towels may be used for comfort during treatment. The treatment is gentle yet effective, designed to work with your body's natural healing process.
Session RecommendationsMost post-surgical patients benefit from 2-3 sessions per week during the first two weeks after surgery, tapering to 1-2 sessions per week as healing progresses.
Typical recovery protocols include 6 to 20 sessions total, depending on the procedure and individual healing response.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after surgery can I start MLD?
1
Most surgeons recommend starting MLD within 24-72 hours after surgery. We work closely with your surgical team to determine the optimal timing for your specific procedure.
Does post-surgical lymphatic drainage hurt?
2
No. MLD uses very gentle, rhythmic pressure. The technique is specifically designed to be comfortable, even on sensitive post-surgical tissue.
How many sessions will I need?
3
This varies by procedure and individual healing. Most patients benefit from 6-12 sessions. We'll create a personalized treatment plan during your first visit.
Can Post-Surgical Recovery Therapy help with fibrosis?
4
Yes. Specific massage techniques can help decrease and even prevent the formation of fibrosis (hardened scar tissue) during post-surgical recovery.
Will I notice results right away?
5
Many clients notice changes after treatment. You may experience increased urination, darker urine color, stronger urine odor, or increased body odor as the body processes waste through the lymphatic system
