Post-Liposuction Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Post-liposuction lymphatic drainage massage at Arendarska Care is delivered by Mgr. Aneta Arendarska, whose physiotherapy education at the University of Health and Sport Sciences in Wrocław included rehabilitation techniques for post-surgical soft tissue, and who trained specifically in oedema management under Professor Ryszard Kocięba in the context of replantation and microsurgery recovery. This clinical background distinguishes the service from…

Following liposuction, the disruption of local lymphatic vessels — combined with surgical trauma, fluid infiltration from the tumescent anaesthetic, and inflammatory response — produces oedema, bruising, and in some cases areas of firmness or contour irregularity. Without targeted lymphatic drainage, this fluid may organise into fibrous deposits (fibrosis) that compromise the final aesthetic result.

The massage protocol used at this clinic follows a structured sequence: 1. Light activation of the cervical, axillary, or inguinal lymph node basins (depending on the operated area) to create capacity for lymph flow. 2. Progressive manual strokes along the lymphatic pathways of the body surface, moving fluid from the oedematous zone toward the activated node basin. 3. Skin rolling and tissue mobilisation in areas where early fibrosis is detected,…
