Surgery Recovery
Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery Recovery
The Lymphatic Health Clinic
MLD is recommended by many cosmetic and plastic surgeons to accelerate your recovery post-surgery. MLD helps to:
Promote faster healing by reducing swelling
Reduces inflammation and bruising
Helps to manage pain and discomfort
Softens fibrotic tissue and adhesions
The number of sessions required varies as everyone heals differently.
The Lymphatic Health Clinic offers a range of Adjunct Therapies
There is no additional charge applied for adjunct therapies as they may be included in your management plan if required.
Adjunct therapies
The Lymphatic Health Clinic
Lympha Touch
LymphaTouch is a medical device that provides pulsating negative pressure and mechanical vibrations to accelerate lymphatic drainage and relieve swelling. The LymphaTouch device lifts and loosens muscles, fascia, and connective tissues improving circulation to the area. This softens the underlying tissues leading to increased flexibility and mobility.
The Lymph Touch can be used pre- and post-surgery to improve lymphatic circulation, reduce scar tissue formation, and reduce pain.
LED Therapy
The Celluma Light-emitting diode (LED) is a light therapy medical grade device, which uses light energy to improve cellular health, by accelerating the repair and replenishment of compromised tissue cells.
LED therapy penetrates deep into muscle and joint tissue to alleviate pain, increase circulation, decrease inflammation, and promote skin health.
Photobiomodulation
Photobiomodulation (PBM) or Low-Level laser is a non-invasive treatment in the management of lymphoedema and scarring. PBM therapy provides a chemical effect on tissues which increase production of cellular activity and stimulates the lymphatic system. PBM is used to reduce swelling, inflammation, pain, promote tissue healing, softens scars, and prevent fibrosis.
Kinesio Taping
Kinesio taping is effective in assisting in the natural healing mechanisms of our body, and for relieving pain, and reducing inflammation. Kinesio taping supports and stabilises joints and muscles without affecting circulation or range of motion.
Kinesio taping can also be used for post cosmetic surgery to alleviate oedema, pain, and promote healing.
