How to support your natural detox: 12 simple wellbeing habits
Your body already knows how to cleanse itself. These 12 wellbeing habits, from drinking water to walking by the sea, can support it.
Read article →After cosmetic surgery, such as liposuction, liposculpture, a tummy tuck, BBL or breast surgery, many people look for support during their recovery. Post-operative massages combine manual lymphatic drainage with specific techniques to reduce inflammation, prevent fibrosis and help you recover better.
When should you start?
Once your surgeon gives the go-ahead, usually in the first days or weeks. Their authorisation is essential: every surgery and every recovery is different, and they are the one who knows your case.
What can it offer?
- Helping to reduce inflammation and oedema.
- Preventing and treating fibrosis and hardened areas.
- Supporting good healing.
- Helping your surgical result look more even.
- Close support during a delicate stage.
Results may vary from person to person and depend on your surgery and how you heal.
What a session is like
We start by reviewing your surgery and the medical instructions you were given. Then we do drainage and specific techniques for fibrosis, and finish with aftercare guidance for home. Please bring your medical instructions and your compression garment to every session.
How many sessions do I need?
It depends on the surgery and how you are healing. I will suggest a personalised plan at your first session.
When to speak to your doctor first
If your surgeon has not yet authorised massage, if you have a fever or signs of infection, or if you suspect a thrombosis, please speak to your doctor first. If you have any medical concerns, please consult your doctor.
