Massaging Smart Lipo Lumps and Bumps

I had Smart Lipo done on my thighs a couple of weeks ago. I see that some of the doctors have mentioned that massage helps with the lumps and bumps. What type of massage? Can you describe how I should do it for massaging to be effective?

Massage is a must!

If you want to do-it-yourself - I suggest small circular motions moving toward your groin area if the lumps are below the belly button, and up toward the armpits for swelling above the belly button. Expert lymphatic massage is another more expensive choice and finally Ultrasound in the doctors office is another excellent choice.

Deep massage

Deep tissue massage or lymphatic massage by a trained expert can help with lumps and bumps if they appear to be a problem.
