COSMETIC POST-OP LYMPHATIC MASSAGE 

​

While the heart continuously pumps blood through the blood vessels, the lymphatic system relies on the movement of smooth muscles to transport fluid through the lymph vessels. After surgery, the lymph nodes commonly tend to swell and become filled with fluid. This can become extremely uncomfortable and even painful if not addressed.

This lymph detox treatment is designed to drain this excess fluid and move it out of the lymph nodes, improving recovery time. You will typically start lymphatic detox treatments a few days after surgery. 

+ Reduces swelling and inflammation

+Detoxes the body

+Accelerate healing time

• DO NOT WAIT LAST MINUTE TO BOOK SESSIONS.  

Surgery is a major life event and investment of money and time. Just like any major event such as wedding, pregnancy, or a vacation planning ahead is always best. As soon as you know your surgery date schedule your session.

How many massage sessions do I need?

Always ask your doctor the s/he recommendation. I always like to ask clients this question "How much time are you willing to spend on your recovery"?

30 minute massage are great for people who received LIPO360 only. 30 minute massage are great for LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGES meaning the fluid will drain out of the incisions. 

60 minute massages are great for multiple areas such as BBL, Tummy Tuck, BBL with Lipo360 Arms and Chin Lipo. Below are examples to show you that multiple areas need more time.

​

360 Liposuction - 15 to 20 Sessions
360-degree liposuction is a more comprehensive procedure that combines liposuction of the entire midsection to achieve an overall curvier, contoured figure from every angle.

Brazilian Butt Lift - 12 to 20 Sessions
A Brazilian butt lift is a specialized fat transfer procedure that augments the size and shape of the buttocks without implants.

Buttocks lift surgery, also called " Brazilian butt lift surgery ," is an increasingly common plastic surgery technique intended to firm and enhance a patient's rear end. Like other body lifts, butt lift surgery is useful for removing excess skin while toning and tightening the remaining skin.

​

Mommy Makeover - 20 to 25 Sessions
A mommy makeover is one of the most unique cosmetic procedures available in the sense that it's not a single, defined surgery . Instead, a mommy makeover allows the patient and surgeon to work together to determine which surgeries and treatments will best help patients best achieve their goals.
As it is, a Mommy Makeover is typically comprised of roughly three procedures: a breast lift, liposuction, and tummy tuck. These three procedures are designed to address complaints that are common among mothers or at least exacerbated by motherhood.
 

Tummy Tuck - 20 to 30 Sessions
A tummy tuck is a cosmetic surgical procedure to improve the appearance of the abdomen. During a tummy tuck also known as abdominoplasty excess skin and fat are removed from
the abdomen. Connective tissue in the abdomen (fascia) usually is tightened with sutures as well. The remaining skin is then repositioned to create a more toned look.
You might choose to have a tummy tuck if you have excess fat or skin around the area of your bellybutton or a weak lower abdominal wall. A tummy tuck can also boost your body image.

360 Liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift 10 to 20 Sessions

This procedure is perfect for individuals who are looking for a more contoured midsection, as well as adding shape and volume to your buttocks. The butt augmentation procedure uses
liposuction to remove fat from specific midsection areas. The removed fat is then processed, purified and re-injected into the buttocks area to enhance the shape and symmetry of the butt and
hip areas.

Arm Liposuction - 12 sessions 30-40 min
Liposuction of the arms is a form of plastic surgery to remove stubborn fat pockets on the upper arms. It can effectively remove bat wings and restore self-confidence.

Chin Liposuction - 12 sessions 30-40 min
Liposuction under the chin (submental suction-assisted lipectomy) is a surgical procedure performed to remove unwanted deposits of fat from beneath the chin (“double chin”) and to improve jawline definition.
 

Inner Thigh Liposuction - 12 sessions 30-40 min
Liposuction on the inner thighs could improve the overall silhouette of the thighs. Getting inner thigh liposuction can also eliminate problems such as thighs rubbing together. During this
procedure, the surgeon often treats the inner knees too; this to maintain the symmetry of the legs
