Postop Recovery After VASER Liposuction
VASER liposuction is the one of the main contributors to fibrosis. It is an energy device that essentially heats the tissues. Used in the right circumstances on the right patient by an experienced surgeon, it produces incredibly results.
However, used incorrectly, on the wrong patient, it causes one of the most common complications that occurs: fibrosis.

The Vital Role of the Lymphatic System in Wound Healing
Просмотров 1947 месяцев назад
The lymphatic system plays an active and integral part in the wound healing process. Superficial intial lymphatics are literally just below the skin surface and if there is a breach of the skin, then not only is the tissue affected but also the venous capillaries and the initial lymphatics. So, wound healing should not be considered as a process limited only to damaged tissue. There will always...
How Many Postop Manual Lymph Drainage Sessions Should I Offer My Patient?
Просмотров 49711 месяцев назад
Postoperative Manual Lymph Drainage sessions depend on both the patient and their procedure. For instance, someone who has had an abdominoplasty won't start therapy until perhaps 5 days postoperatively. Whereas someone who has had liposuction can commence 48 - 72 hours after their surgery. These are my recommendations for M.L.D. lymphatic massage after abdominoplasty, liposuction and facelift. ...

Manual Lymph Drainage/Lymph Drainage Therapy after Facelift
Просмотров 6 тыс.2 года назад
The anatomy of the lymphatic system changes following some surgeries such as Tummy Tuck/Abdominoplasty and Facelift. This is because tissue containing superficial lymphatics and blood vessels are removed. And tissues are dissected from the underlying muscles. This means drainage pathways will be altered and damaged. So, you have to route swelling to alternative Lymph nodes to help reduce swelli...
K-Taping/Kinesiology Taping to reduce swelling after liposuction surgery

K-Taping, Kinesiology Taping after liposuction surgery helps to reduce swelling. The tape can be worn for up to 5 days, no longer because it may irritate the skin. Wear under your compression/faja to give extra support to the lymphatic system. I include this in my aftercare treatment after many surgical procedures like abdominoplasty, breast surgery, facelift and other body procedures. This tra...

In the meantime I’ve been practising what you’ve shown - on top of my garment for now. Roughly how firm should the pressure be? (I’m used to and enjoy extremely firm deep tissue massages so this is new for me!)

    • @petraerving1854
      @petraerving1854 2 месяца назад

      Sorry for the delay in replying. For any deeper massage and if using a foam roller and/or spikey ball, I'd recommend waiting until you are 4ish weeks, with hard, lumpy bumpy areas. You can do gentle self massage just using your hands very lightly in the first week after surgery. Your MLD therapist will advise.

      Often a positive outcome can be made but it will depend on an experienced therapist assessing and treating it effectively. You can search out a good therapist with experience in this issue on various social media channels and on Google. But, do your due diligence. There are a lot of therapists who will claim they can help, show amazing before and after photos (photoshopped) and willingly take your money. So just be careful who you take on.
