Do it yourself: Lymphatic Drainage at home after FFS Surgery

[@m.thompson6813]

Very relaxing just to watch. Ty. Will be having a deep plane FL. Would this be appropriate for that procedure as well? Should wait until all the stiches are out? Thanks for the video!

Thanks! Best to ask the surgeon providing your facelift as soft tissue work is not the same as bone work. We appreciate you visiting our channel!

Thank you for your video, it has helped me a lot. I do have a question on the forehead at the end of eyebrows on both sides , I have a loose skin just like a blister ( I am in my 6week now ) do you think it will go if I continue doing massage? You can not see it but it feels like blister , can you help ? Thank you 🙏

If you have air in your temples six weeks after forehead reconstruction surgery, it's essential to take the appropriate steps to address the issue and ensure proper healing. For this purpose, please contact your postoperative coordinator and send some photos indicating the area and explaining a bit more (when has it appeared? Has it improved over time? Did you make an effort?). In the meantime, be gentle with the surgical area and avoid applying any pressure or trauma to the temples. Minimize activities that may strain the forehead region or cause discomfort. Remember, every individual's healing process can vary, and it's crucial to seek advice from your surgeon for specific guidance. They will be able to evaluate your condition, determine if the presence of air in the temples is normal or concerning, and provide the appropriate course of action.

How long after surgery can u start with the massages?

[@Facialteam]

Normally, as soon as you feel comfortable doing it (gently), as our specialist does it within the first week. Remember to consult with your surgeon for specific instruction in your particular case.

Just had a Macs facelift 3 weeks ago and have a small hematoma that has been drained by surgeon, but there’s still some swelling left on the right side of my face. Would this massage help?

We recommend our own patients to practice self-massage once they return home. It is very gentle and if performed consistently, can help with lymphatic drainage. Consult your doctor about your unique case and for specific instructions before beginning any practices.
