Post Surgery Care
THERAPEUTIC SERVICES DURING SURGICAL HEALING
A LITTLE ABOUT Post Surgery care...
What to expect?
Post surgical massage treatment is an essential form of therapy following any surgical procedure. Following surgery most clients will experience some level of pain, discomfort, inflammation, scarring (fibrous tissue formation) and some level of swelling, or more serious lymphedema. Lymphedema occurs when lymph nodes have been removed or compromised, leaving them damaged or blocked and unable to carry out their roles of moving fluids out of the body via our lymphatic system.
For clients who are post-cosmetic surgery, for example abdominoplasty, BBL, breast lift, treatment will usually initiate within the first week where your therapist will use gentle MLD techniques, such as the Dodder and Brazilian methods to flush toxins and fluids from the surgery sites to the nearest drainage points. This is especially important soon after surgery to encourage lymphatic flow and reduce the likelihood of seroma’s and hematomas but also crucial for accelerated healing and dispelling of anaesthesia and other toxins that have became stagnant.
The single biggest factor that leads to poor or defective aesthetic cosmetic results is lack of post surgical aftercare. We have helped many clients in the latter stages of their aftercare correct unnecessary adhesions that were not tended to in the initial stages of recovery but eventually plighted their final result. In some cases we can completely resolve such issues however sometimes this is not always possible if the client has delayed follow up aftercare. Hence we always encourage our clients to ensure they commit to treatments for at least the first 6 weeks post-op so any possible complications can be managed and eradicated as they arise.

Your Recovery After-Care Process
Initial Recovery Stage: Between 1-4 weeks
Your aftercare provision will take place in two stages: the initial four weeks of healing will focus solely on wound management and reduction of pain, inflammation and fluid retention – using only manual lymphatic drainage and shockwave therapy (where required).
Latter Recovery Stage: 5 weeks plus
The latter recovery stage place from five weeks onwards and will involve use of the more advanced body sculpting tools and technologies which target irregularities and aid skin tightening. During weeks 4-6 your body will go through a stage of remodelling an it is during the stage that scar tissue and fibrosis may surface resulting in contour irregularities and are particularly noticeable on the abdominal wall and inner/outer thighs. At this time, your therapist will advise on what modality will best suit your needs based on your current presentation and desired outcome and this will often be a combination of Maderotherapy (Columbian wood therapy), Lipo Cavitation, Radio Frequency, Shockwave Therapy and Vaccuum Cupping
