Post-Operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

Post-Operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, highly specialised therapeutic technique designed to support the body’s natural healing process after surgery. Using light, rhythmic, and precise hand movements, MLD stimulates the lymphatic system—encouraging the safe and effective removal of excess fluid, cellular waste, and toxins from the body. This helps reduce post-surgical swelling (edema), minimize bruising, and prevent complications such as fibrosis or seroma formation.

This therapy is especially beneficial following cosmetic, reconstructive, or orthopedic procedures, as it promotes faster recovery, enhances comfort, and can improve the overall appearance of surgical outcomes by reducing tissue congestion and inflammation. By improving lymphatic circulation, MLD helps accelerate the healing of incisions, decreases scar tissue formation, and supports the body’s return to balance.

Beyond its physical benefits, Post-Operative MLD also offers emotional and psychological support during a potentially stressful recovery period. The treatment is soothing and non-invasive, providing a calming, restorative experience that can ease discomfort and promote a sense of wellbeing.

Whether you’re recovering from liposuction, tummy tuck, facelift, breast surgery, or other medical procedures, Post-Operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a safe and effective way to assist your body’s recovery, restore comfort, and optimize healing outcomes.
