Manual Lymphatic Drainage After Cosmetic Surgery

After cosmetic surgery, swelling and oedema are common side effects. MLD helps to alleviate these issues by promoting the drainage of excess fluid. By gently stimulating the lymphatic vessels, my manual lymphatic drainage in Northamptonshire accelerates the removal of post-surgical swelling, allowing patients to recover more comfortably and quickly.

The gentle nature of manual lymphatic drainage stimulates blood circulation and promotes oxygen and nutrient delivery to the treated areas. This increased circulation aids in the healing process, reducing recovery time and promoting optimal results. By boosting the body's natural healing mechanisms, MLD can help minimise scarring and promote healthy tissue regeneration.

Post-surgical pain and discomfort can hinder your recovery and affect overall well-being. MLD acts as a natural pain reliever by stimulating the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.

Additionally, the relaxing nature of the massage helps to reduce muscle tension and stiffness, providing a soothing and comforting experience.

Cosmetic surgery can temporarily weaken the immune system. Manual lymphatic drainage activates the body's lymphocytes, enhancing the immune response and supporting overall immune function. By promoting the removal of toxins and waste products, this procedure assists in detoxifying the body and strengthening the immune system's ability to ward off infections.

MLD enhances the overall condition of the skin by increasing blood flow and promoting healthy tissue regeneration. The improved circulation brings vital nutrients to the skin cells, resulting in a revitalised complexion and improved skin tone and texture. The massage also aids in the removal of metabolic waste and toxins, giving the skin a healthier and more radiant appearance.
