I have several friends who have had liposuction. The ones that got the massages are pleased and the ones who did not say they have fibrosis, but were told by their doctor's to not have the massages.

Answer: Are lymphatic massages necessary after having liposuction? What is fibrosis and how is it prevented after liposuction? Thank you for your questions. Massage after liposuction can help improve the swelling and speed up the recovery, but it is not a fail-safe to prevent complications. You should discuss your postop care with your surgeon as everyone has a different protocol for what they think works best.Good luck!
