I wasn't required to get massages after Laser Lipo it was only suggested. From what I have read it helps with the healing process but will my results still come out ok if I don't get the massages? I'm 3 weeks out from my procedure and have not got any massages and have barely massage myself because it feels so weird and strange to touch. I have lumps as I know that is normal but I would like to know what will happen if I choose not to get massages.

Answer: Massage after LaserLipo Great question! Obviously you want the very best result possible and LaserLipo is such a great treatment for permanently removing fat and also tightening the skin. I find that not getting or doing massage will not affect your final result. The short term result may look better since the massage is helping to break up some of the lumpiness that you are noticing. Some patients like the feeling of massage but others will feel some discomfort by doing this. So the important thing is to remember that at the end of 6 months, the result will look the same whether or not massage is used. Best wishes, Mary Beth Mudd

Answer: Massage after liposuction Thank you for your question. Every surgeon has their post operative protocols. Some will tell you massage is a must, others believe it is less important. In my experience, post lipo massage can make or break your results. If you have uneven lumps and bumps, massage can be very helpful. Additionally, it often alleviates post operative pain and aids the healing process. Is it necessary? no, but I definitely recommend it to all of my patients.
