Does Lymphomax help with drainage after liposuction?

Question

Liposuction

Robert M. Tornambe, MD · Answer

Newnu2018.  Lymphoax is a supplement with no proof that it reduces swelling after liposuction. Your best option is gentle self massage and a tincture of time to allow postoperative swelling to resolve on its own. Save your money. Good luck.

Douglas Taranow, DO, FACOS · Answer

Thanks for the question.Lymphomax is an herbal supplement with a multitude of claims.  Unfortunately, the FDA does not test nor police most supplements so you do not know exactly what you are getting and two; if the product does any of the things it says.  Natural diuretics do clear excess fluid from the body by causing more urine to be made.  The problem you can run into is electrolyte imbalance (potassium and sodium that are lost in the urine) which can lead to serious medical side effects.Ask your surgeon and be weary of most medicinal claims out there.Good luck with your healing.Dr T
