Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialised massage technique designed to stimulate the natural movement of lymphatic fluid through the body’s lymphatic system.
After procedures like liposculpture, where tissue manipulation causes fluid buildup (edema), swelling, and discomfort. MLD plays a critical role in post-operative recovery. Using light, precise, and rhythmic hand movements to direct excess fluid toward the lymph nodes, where it can be effectively processed and eliminated by the body. It helps reduce swelling, accelerates healing, prevents complications such as fibrosis (hardening of tissue), and significantly eases inflammation. For optimal results, MLD must be included as a part of your post-surgical care plan.
