I support post op surgery with lymphatic drainage reflexology within the 1st 2 weeks (using the feet to drain the whole body) then manual lymphatic drainage massage. Helps drain fluid and scar tissue recovery also inflammation reduction. Book via my website www.jokirktherapies.com
After skin removal surgery, it’s important to keep up with post-op massages. These aren’t just for comfort, they play a big role in your recovery. Post-operative massages help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and encourage proper lymphatic drainage, which can prevent fluid buildup (seromas) and speed up healing. They can also help break up scar tissue, soften firmness under the skin, and improve overall mobility as your body adjusts.
A lot of people focus on the surgery itself, but the recovery process is just as important for getting the best results. Staying consistent with your massages, wearing your compression garments, staying hydrated, and following your surgeon’s guidelines can make a huge difference in how you heal, both physically and visually.
