Thank you. I’m almost 3 months post op tummy tuck, bbl, and lipo 360. I’m swelling a lot in my lower back and abdomen. I wish my doctor would’ve provided more aftercare instructions on self massaging.
Wow! I don’t know how you could survive have a tt and bbl in the same go round. How do you sleep? My surgeon won’t do them together. I am 1 month post TT and Lipo 360. The swelling is no joke!
@@vp7841 my swelling in my back is still really bad. We just got back from a cruise and it was bad at night. Recovery has been hard for me I wouldn’t recommend doing those together.
@@vp7841 tummy tuck + BBL+ implants is commondly done together by any experienced surgeon - but it can very from patient to patient, as it is more complicated and recovery would be much longer. the patient can only sleep on their back, with legs elevated to avoid pressure on the glutes
Thank you so much!! I just had lipo and I just cried today. I can’t eat and my stomach is rock hard. I couldn’t take it anymore. I started massaging the areas affected. The deep breathing helped as well! Thank you! 🙏🏽
@Chin D A LOT better now! I wouldn't say I massage daily, but I did start massaging using my hands (2 pro lymphatic drainage massages) and eventually a massage gun. That really helped and I'm happier now almost 3 months po
I wanted to thank you for this channel, it's very informative and the way you present everything is calming and easy to follow and understand. I can get a bit tired of some medical TH-camrs who are trying to be funny or upbeat all the time, I'm sure that works for lots of people but I like your way better. 💜
Thank you so much for uploading this video. I have been so nervous about attempting self lymphatic massage on myself since my surgery and could only find videos on generalised lymphatic massage. Your video is very clear and informative, and your calm persona made for easy viewing, it has given me the confidence to do this myself and in only 3 days I have noticed a huge difference in my swelling. Again, thank you so much for this video!
thank you - this was v helpful. I had lipo on my chest and belly 9/27/21and my dr said after 2 weeks post surgery find someone who does lymph massage. I made an appt with him, but this video helps a lot because i can start on my own.
Thank you so much this has helped me drain out the liquid. I am pleased with your video as for my torso feels a lot better. I haven’t had a drainage and I am a week into my lipo 360
Thank you for all your videos. I wish I found you before my experience but do recommend you to everyone. Your knowledge is a gift to all of us and you cover everything that we need to know. I did have liposuction when I had my reconstruction surgery. Thank you again for your knowledge.
very informative. I had pubic liposuction and after 2.5 months I'm feeling the fibrosis and areas with lumps. This feels real good doing what you recommend. Way better than a massage device pounding up and down on those areas. I found that by doing the latter it felt worse the next day. Do you recommend any heating or icing?
No honestly that first week is terrible. I was crying so bad at my first 3 massages that I was traumatized and haven’t gotten another massage since. I’m 3 weeks post op
Good afternoon. Thank you so kindly for your videos. They are so instructive. I have one question: I am cut along the bikini line. How does this interfere with drainage from my tummy tuck and lipo?
Could you make a video explaining a lymphatic massage for a tummy tuck PO? It is so difficult to find someone to do it correctly, and without a proper massage, there is no relief. Thank you 🙏🏼 I love your videos because you not only explain well but I also learn from them.
This is the way the limphodema specialists dose mine and I'm 7 weeks post op tummy tuck. Rubs my back and side and everything above the belly button up to the armpits. Hope that helps
Your videos are very informative. I have learned a lot in a short period. But, do you have videos where you are performing massages on someone else? this would be very helpful for ultrasound cavitation clients.
How does Edema work if you fell over and your varicose veins took a beating. I have Edema in a narrow band at my ankles.I watched your video and I will follow you.one thing I did notice was I felt fantastic after doing my whole body AND I am 78. So thank you very much. and one final question what made me feel 100% ???
hello not sure this is a question answer but giving a try. 12 years ago I had 35 lymph nodes removed for uterin cancer. Then just 41/2 years another 25 lymph nodes removed under my right arm. I have had massive lymph swelling but with a therapist it has been going down out of my rib cage and legs. I'm still having trouble with the right arm and under right and some in center of my chest. I'm told the drain is in uppr chest??? I just came on this bunch of videos so I'm working through them. I hope to get to the pool and do those. I at times thought I would make worse in the pool. My major trouble now is I have degenerative disc and spinal stenosis causing aweful numbness to feet and legs. Now SL joint also coming involved. Thank you for allowing comment.
Great video, thank you for sharing the information. Just had Lipo on upper arms and thighs both inner and outer. Is this type of massage just as good as dry brushing post Lipo? Can this be done over compression garments or does the massage have to be done directly on skin? Thanks!
Hey, thank you for the video, very informative, I have a question if you don’t mind answering , i came across other videos in which some people claim that after tummy tuck and lipo you should move hands upwards as the cut from the incision works as a “bridge “ and stops the water going down to the lower part, would you say it is true or not? 😘
Hi. I am a massage therapist some years . lymphatic drainage isnt requested all that much. i have treated a couple of people after liposuction on stomach and legs. in a few fays i will treat someone after a tummy tuck and leg treatment. any tips of what not to do. im thinking just work above the area of stitchs. can i still drain to the Inguinal nodes? can you recommend a sequence? normally i would start on the stomach but in this situation would i treat it last and very carefully? Tia
Generally how much "time" in each area should be given? plz, so I may know truly know what the time line may be with my treatment. I've had bad experiences.
Thank you for your video. How do you place the client when you do the lower back, hip and glutes? Do you constantly change client position? That is my concern.
Thank you! Ohhh is it common to have a little swelling to your ankles after Lipo? I’m talking about this happened only 7/8 days after the Lipo. And yes, I started post/Op drainage the following day after surgery. No dizziness or any syncope at all. Little dizzy only after the Local anesthesia. Looking forward for your response. Thank you.
My Surgeon told me not to massage, and its been a week now and i have little bumps. I have started massage today thats after a week. Do u think those lil bumps would disappear. They are not big, but the surface is not even either. I have been using a binder as advised by my doc.
I tried this & now I have hard lumps in the front of my belly. Is this normal? I didn't have this before the massage & it caused fluid to flow down into my groin area. The swelling there has gone down but the lumps are still there.
Hi, you're saying that any swelling below the belly button area you push to groin lymph nodes. When there's a cut after surgery do you still follow this? I thought that because there's a cut and an original path has been 'destroyed', we should change direction? Like anything above the cut goes to armpits, anything below the cut goes to groins. Anybody with any advice? I am very confused. Cheers
What if the person had a tummy tuck? I heard that the quadrant bellow the belly buttons is eliminated as the skin above the belly button is pulled down. And the it has to be drained upwards. Is that true? Thank you
I had laser lipo 2 weeks ago. I'm still very swollen and retaining a lot of fluids. My doctor wants me to wait for 1 month before I can start lymphatic massages....I'm not sure why but I feel like that's a long time
Hello dear, laser lipo can be done with lymphatic massage but laser lipo is not lymphatic massage. Also, you have to really increase your water intake Atleast 2 liters a day so you can get ride of the toxins. You won’t see proper results without hydration
Thank you for video. Question. What if my both underarm lymph nodes are destroyed by hidradenitis suppurativa? What direction massage lines should be to reduce swelling after upper back and breast lipo?
Thank you so much for this video. I have a question. Can this massage be extremely painful? The clinic I am going For a bbl offers 3 post op massages but everybody is telling me that it's so painful, that some people pass out. They aggressive drained the fluid and reopen incisions so it comes out.
Failed to mention opening the entire channel by stimulating the venous return nodes, which allow for the return of lymph to the circulatory system/heart. This should be the first and last step of any manual lymphatic drainage massage/therapy.

I know where you got lipo. So did I. Agree there needs to be more directions. Hope all goes well.
I got mine elsewhere! Same issue!! It’s like they don’t care as much about the aftercare but it’s an extremely important part of getting great results
This has helped me already get some swelling down even after 2 days! Thank you!
Thank you so much!! I just had lipo and I just cried today. I can’t eat and my stomach is rock hard. I couldn’t take it anymore. I started massaging the areas affected. The deep breathing helped as well! Thank you! 🙏🏽
What can I do if my feet and ankles are swollen 😊
I'm total opposite, stomach is squishy and SO swollen like it's crazy I can't wait to be fully healed and finally able to see results 😣
Take that back lol. My stomach is hard now too I'm worried about fibrosis. 2 weeks post op

@@soimsha. 😢I’m so sorry your experience was so painful!
Which area did u have lipo? Did u get massage? How was your result without massage?
@@soimsha.They probably too rough maybe massage yourself
Wow you explained that really well.
Thank you for this video,it really helped me.
It would be nice if she answered people's questions but video is very informative
It’s Self explanatory unless you hire a therapist
Kelly
This was 2 years ago. Long time to check it constantly
Be grateful she even did this video. She did everything but do it for you. Some people are never satisfied🙄🙄🙄
Thank you for this. More and more people with combo lipodema and lymphedema are turning to liposuction so it seems really helpful.
Your professional and you’re very good at explaining the basic areas and what needs to be worked I’m sure it’s not as easy in the video
Thank you. Very interesting and simply explained
1 week and I'm feeling great.
Good afternoon. Thank you so kindly for your videos. They are so instructive. I have one question: I am cut along the bikini line. How does this interfere with drainage from my tummy tuck and lipo?

Thank you. I’m 7 weeks PO TT and my surgeon said to wait 4 weeks PO for massages. All of the swelling is so depressing
Those were great diagrams of the direction of lymphatic flow on the front and back of the body. Are they from a textbook?
Thank you so much! I feel grateful I found you ❤
How long after an abdomnioplasty would you start doing this?
Well done you! Does the lymphatic massage help with bloating? Many thanks

Thank you so much for the video is very helpful, a quick question, do you direct the liquid to the groin area in a patient that has had a tummy tuck ?
Great video...I wanted to ask if you suggest a lymphatic massage roller to use or just your hands?
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. ❤

Can a lymphatic massage help reduce, or eliminate lipomas ?
So so helpful. Thank you so much!
I can't do the low part as i did tummy tuck. Would this video still be good to do?
Thank you, do you also need to drink more to help the fluid move out of your body?
should the massage be done slowly or fast? and can we use oil?

Do you touch the lipo insertion areas? They are right around those massage circles. Do you go around them?
Thank you for your video.
How do you place the client when you do the lower back, hip and glutes? Do you constantly change client position? That is my concern.
but if they have 360 liposuction? you still go like a regular lymphatic massage? im curious how you do it in the stomach, with the scar. thank you

Yes it is of you've gotten a bbl the thighs and leg swell make sure you get ypur massage on a regular
Thank you so much for this video .
When should you start doing this
Do you take off the compression garment first?

I highly recommend you go back to your surgeon.
I had 10 days ago chest lipo and the doc told me not to massage... He took 1 litre of fat and according to him there was no need of drains and massage

My lipolymohedema increased after pregnancy (I had a c-section and I was wondering if this would be helpful in this curcumstance)
How do I locate a physical therapist that specializes in lymphatic drainage? I assume on every PT can do it.

surgical stitches. And i have bumps and lamps.. What should i do 😭😭

The next day!!!
😂 Thank you so much Kelly for your time.
Ima get a skinny bbl would these massages work for a skinny bbl too? And can i do myself?
Thank you for video. Question. What if my both underarm lymph nodes are destroyed by hidradenitis suppurativa? What direction massage lines should be to reduce swelling after upper back and breast lipo?
You can move it through the intercostal nodes into the thoracic duct and subclavian. But try and stimulate all the lymph nodes
I hope this helps
Thank you so much for this video. I have a question. Can this massage be extremely painful? The clinic I am going For a bbl offers 3 post op massages but everybody is telling me that it's so painful, that some people pass out. They aggressive drained the fluid and reopen incisions so it comes out.
Pass out???? I’m also due for lipo and I’m here because of how everyone is complaining about the massages
@@hopemosidi1474pass out???
Oh heck no!
how much message is required on daily basis
Please tell me how I drain my axillary because it gets swollen after my mastectomy
Thank you very much.
Can I just take a diuretic
My stomach and back have been hard since the day after my lipo. My massage therapist says it's normal but I am not sure.
how are you doing now
I had a bbl September 29th. My fluid burns so much it’s hard for me to get though my massages.
How are you doing now babe? I’m due for mine soon that’s why I’m here
This was so helpful !
do u keep the client face down all the time
does liposuction massage work after hole are stitches
Good question
Definitely. Mine did. The fluid comes out when you pee and poop, as it was explained to me
What does yellow mean whe u drain
Should we do this after a c section?
Yes, any kind of fluid retention from surgery or illness can improve with lymph drainage massage
Should we do this on dry skin or with oil?
great video thank you!
Failed to mention opening the entire channel by stimulating the venous return nodes, which allow for the return of lymph to the circulatory system/heart. This should be the first and last step of any manual lymphatic drainage massage/therapy.

Is there a lymphatic drainage class I can take as a professional
Yes I am very sure. Check around your location (local or international)
