Does Lymphatic Massage Help Reduce Swelling After Plastic Surgery?
Absolutely!
If youโre recovering from surgery, youโve probably noticed swelling that just wonโt quit. Thatโs totally normal, surgery disrupts the bodyโs natural balance and slows down your lymphatic system, causing fluid to build up.
โจThis is where Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) becomes an essential part of your recovery.
With gentle, rhythmic movements, MLD stimulates the lymph vessels right under the skin, helping your body move that trapped fluid OUT.
We start by โopeningโ the major lymph nodes (neck, underarms, abdomen, groin), then guide fluid from swollen areas into these drainage pathways.
The result? Less swelling, faster recovery, and a more comfortable post-op experience.
๐ฟ Want to boost results even more? Certain natural supplements may support inflammation and swelling, including:
โข Bromelain
โข Turmeric
โข Arnica Montana
(Always check with your surgeon or lymphatic therapist first!)
๐ฆ And donโt forget, hydration is your lymph systemโs best friend.
โค๏ธโ๐ฉน If youโre on your post-op journey, lymphatic drainage is one of the most supportive, effective tools you can add to your healing routine. Your body will thank you.
