Answer: Do I need massages after Tummy tuck procedure if so how many ? There is no evidence that massages help improve tummy tuck results. However, if you have significant swelling that is not improving, ask your surgeon if lymphatic massage is appropriate for you.

Answer: TT Yes but it's not as important as after liposuction. Find out from your PS what's the preference in his/her practice.

Answer: Do I need massages after Tummy tuck procedure, if so how many? It is not mandatory to have massages after a tummy tuck. However, I usually recommend that patients (on their own) massage the area of a tummy tuck or liposuction, once they have adequately healed. The massage can help stimulate lymphatic flow and break up areas of scarring or fluid accumulation. There is no specific number of massages but it won't hurt to massage the area once a day for the first 6 weeks following the procedure. Best wishes, Dr. Lepore.
