Liposuction recovery and massage

the surgeon who performs the liposuction surgery, despite the type of liposuction, smartlipo, tumescent liposuction, powered liposuction, jet liposuction and others, should be the one to recommend when, if any, massage should be done after surgery. Compression garments are usually recommended.  Deep massage done too soon after surgery could cause internal injury which can interfere with healing and the eventual cosmetic result.

Massage is not necessary after lipouction

While massage is not necessary after liposuction some patients like to use a commercial vibrator or even a device like Clarisonic Pro.

Massage after liposuction

In general, massage is not necessary for most cases of liposuction.  I would say gentle massage is probably OK, perhaps your surgeon can show you or offer to send you to see some one who has experience performing massage.
