How Many Days After a Tummy Tuck Can a Person Start on Lymphatic Massages?

NewMe1024
I will be having my TT on 10/24th and am very interested in lymphatic drainage. It seems to me like this is more popular amongst international PS's. Just curious as to why surgeons in the US don't mention it as much and if it really helps the healing process.
