Types of massages after Liposuction to reduce the chance of fibrosis?

Question

I'm 2 1/2 months post op. I received liposuction/bbl. I've had over 10 lymphatic drainage massages. I feel like I'm past the draining stage. What are other types of massages I should look into getting. I live in Northern California I can't find any post op massage places.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Lymphatic massage is the best type of massage after liposuction and at this point chance of fibrosis is small. Post treatment however, I recommend hyperbaric oxygen, compression, and radiofrequency treatments like Velashape and Venus legacy to improve results. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

The benefit of massage after liposuction lax scientific support.

While it's often recommended there is no evidence that it has any long-term benefit.

When in question you should ask your plastic surgeon what he or she recommends.

2 1/2 months much of the early scar tissue that's formed has already matured and should have dissipated.

Best,
