    For Surgeons

    We collaborate with cosmetic surgery practices throughout the Denver metro to provide consistent, professional lymphatic recovery care.

What Is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?

Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle, targeted manual therapy designed to support the lymphatic system both before and after cosmetic surgery.

After surgery, the body experiences:

• Swelling
• Fluid stagnation
• Inflammation
• Bruising
• Temporary fibrosis formation

Manual lymphatic drainage helps encourage fluid movement, reduce congestion, and support smoother healing.

We follow a conservative, medically respectful approach appropriate for early-stage recovery.


Common Procedures We Support

We provide lymphatic recovery after:

• Liposuction
• Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
• Brazilian butt lift (BBL)
• Breast augmentation or reduction
• Facelift and neck lift
• Arm and thigh contouring

If you are unsure when to begin, we can coordinate timing with your surgeon’s protocol.


For Patients Preparing for Surgery

Pre-operative lymphatic sessions can:

• Optimize baseline drainage
• Reduce pre-surgical inflammation
• Help clients understand post-op expectations
• Establish care before swelling begins

Many patients schedule 1–2 sessions before surgery to prepare their system.

For Patients Recovering From Surgery

If you are already post-op, we support:

• Early swelling management
• Fluid redistribution
• Mild fibrosis management
• Education on realistic healing timelines

Most patients begin within the first 5–10 days (with surgeon approval) and schedule a series of multiple sessions for best results.
