How important are massages after lipo and BBL. When do you recommend starting?

Hello dear!!

Thanks for the question.

Lymphatic massages are a very important part of the healing process and will help you a lot with the swollen, the skin and the general recovery. 10 massages are the recommended.

Hope this could help and good luck :)

Thank you for a very common great question.  Every surgeon has their own protocol based on experience and technique used.  Need to follow your surgeons post operate instructions carefully for the result you and the surgeon have discussed.  I, personally do not have my patients massage and I have done thousands of successful procedures.Make sure you have a thorough consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience in this procedure. Check her/his experience, credentials, reviews, before and after photos, and have a quality consultation.  There are many surgeons including myself who do virtual consultations as well.
It is preferred for your surgeon to be member of "American Society of Plastic Surgeons" and ideally member of "American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery". This means they have been evaluated by the society and recognized that the focus of their practice is high volume and quality, honest aesthetic plastic surgery and they adhere to a code of ethics.
All my best,
