No, a Lymphatic Drainage Massage immediately after liposuction is dangerous. To avoid wound dehiscence or suture dehiscence, you must wait at least 14 days before performing a Lymphatic Drainage Massage.

However, a Lymphatic Drainage Massage is very beneficial afterward; it drains lymphatic fluid accumulations and tends to reduce swelling.

The patient can receive one treatment up to twice a day. However, the method is recommended at least twice a week to achieve visible results.

Be sure to discuss this topic with your primary care physician before coming to us.

For insurance reasons, we recommend that your physician provide you with written confirmation of when a Lymphatic Drainage Massage may be performed.

Please email us a copy of this confirmation as soon as you receive it from your physician.
