Lymphatic drainage after lipo?

January 12, 2017
Asked By:Dinoo in Beverly Hills, CA

I just had lipo to the flanks, inner thighs and lower tummy and was wondering if lymphatic drainage massage would be necessary or helpful for optimal results? Should the drainage be manual massage or can it also be using machines like the ones used for cellulite treatment? How soon after the surgery can i start? Thank you.
