Post Surgery Massage & Ultrasonic Lymphatic Drainage Techniques in Sydney

The Ashbrooke Cosmetic Clinic

Why Consider Post-Surgical Therapy?

After cosmetic or medical surgery, post-surgical therapy can assist in the recovery process by helping to reduce swelling and supporting tissue repair.

 

If you’re searching for post-surgical lymphatic massage, Ashbrooke Cosmetics offers services tailored to manage swelling and support the body’s healing process, designed to complement post-surgical care under medical guidance.

 

Post-surgical therapy offers supportive care aimed at assisting recovery following surgery. Here are some ways it may be beneficial:

 

  1. Assisting with Swelling Reduction: Swelling is a common response after surgery. Post-surgical therapies, such as lymphatic drainage massage, may help by encouraging the movement of lymphatic fluids through the lymphatic system.
  2. Supporting Scar Tissue Management: Scar tissue formation is part of the healing process but can sometimes affect recovery and appearance. Techniques like ultrasound therapy may assist in managing scar tissue thickness, with the aim of improving flexibility and appearance.
  3. Supporting Healing Processes: Therapies like manual lymphatic drainage and ultrasound are designed to complement the body’s recovery, potentially enhancing tissue repair and contributing to an effective recovery experience.
  4. Improving Circulation: Certain therapeutic treatments may aid blood circulation, supporting the delivery of essential nutrients to the healing tissues and assisting in the body’s detoxification process.
  5. Assisting with Pain Management: Post-surgical therapy may help alleviate discomfort in some cases by reducing pressure in swollen areas and potentially easing associated discomfort, enhancing comfort during recovery.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage Sydney

At Ashbrooke Cosmetic, we use two different modalities for lymphatic massage – manual lymphatic drainage and ultrasound lymphatic drainage.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual lymphatic drainage uses very light pressure to stimulate the lymphatic system. This technique increases the flow of lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues.

 

Benefits:

Increases Circulation

Enhances lymph fluid movements to support recovery.

Aids in Waste Removal

Helps eliminate toxins and cellular waste

Swelling Reduction

Supports the management of fluid build-up and swelling during recovery

Recovery Support

Aims to aid the body’s standard processes for tissue repair and healing

The above benefits may differ from patient to patient.

Possible Risks of Lymphatic Drainage Massages

This treatment is typically considered to be safe however, there are some cases when this may not be recommended:

Infection Risk: If not performed properly, there is a slight risk of causing or worsening infections, particularly in individuals with compromised immune systems

Lymphedema Exacerbation: In rare cases, if too much pressure is applied, it can exacerbate or cause lymphedema in susceptible individuals.

The above risks may differ from patient to patient.

 

Ultrasonic Post Surgery Massage

In this post surgery lymphatic drainage massage, a special gel is applied to the skin and it utilises an ultrasound machine for lymphatic drainage.

This includes the use of ultrasound for fibrosis after liposuction, a specialised technique aimed at reducing fibrous tissue that can develop following liposuction procedures.

The ultrasound machine is used to break up scar tissue and sound waves are emitted that penetrate through skin and fat, breaking up fibrous tissues and collagen. This treatment typically involves around six sessions of approximately 45 minutes each.

Benefits:

Breaks Down Scar Tissue

Reduces the appearance of post-surgical scars

Clears Toxins and Waste

Assists the body in flushing out unwanted substances through enhanced lymphatic drainage.

Reduces Swelling and Infection

Reduces post-surgical swelling and lowers the risk of infection.

Decreases Chronic Pain and Muscle Spasms

Reduces tight muscles

Speeds Up Recovery

Accelerates the healing process and time needed for recuperation.

With all benefits, it is important to note that individual results may vary and the effectiveness of the treatment is not guaranteed.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any more questions about Post Surgery Massages in Sydney or any of our services, please don’t hesitate to contact us today.

How soon after surgery can I start therapy?

Post-surgical therapy can generally begin a few days after surgery but the exact timing depends on your specific surgical procedure. Starting therapy early can help in reducing swelling and accelerating recovery but it is vital to wait until your doctor confirms that your surgical wounds have healed sufficiently to withstand treatment.

To prepare for a session you should wear loose, comfortable clothing and ensure you are well-hydrated. It is also advisable to have a light meal a few hours before your session to maintain your energy levels without feeling too full. Make sure to also discuss any concerns or sensitivities you might have before the session.

Unlike massages such as deep tissue massage, remedial massage and sports massage, lymphatic drainage massage has a more particular focus which is to encourage lymph flow. Other massages primarily aim to improve mobility and provide pain relief for tired muscles and soft tissue injuries.
