Our Services

We specialize in advanced lymphatic drainage therapy designed to support your healing journey, enhance your recovery, and improve overall well-being. Whether you’re recovering from plastic surgery, cosmetic procedures, or managing the side effects of oncology treatments, our tailored services are here to help.

Post-Operative Lymphatic Drainage for Plastic Surgery Patients

Recovering from plastic surgery and similar surgeries such as abdominoplasty panniculectomy surgeries, can involve swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Our lymphatic drainage therapy is specifically designed to:

    • Reduce post-surgical swelling and bruising.
    • Prevent complications like fibrosis and seromas.
    • Accelerate healing for smoother, more uniform results.
      We provide expert care for patients recovering from liposuction, tummy tucks, facelifts, breast augmentation, and more.

Lymphatic Drainage for Postpartum & Other Surgery Patients

Recovering from postpartum changes or other surgeries can be challenging, with swelling, discomfort, and fluid retention common concerns. Our services focus on:

  • Alleviating swelling and tension.
  • Supporting healing after C-sections and abdominal surgeries.
  • Improving circulation and scar healing for faster recovery.

We also offer specialized postpartum care for moms recovering from C-section surgery, starting 6–8 weeks post-delivery and continuing up to 3 months. Gentle techniques are used to enhance mobility, reduce discomfort, and ensure proper scar healing, so you feel supported and confident throughout recovery.

Oncology Lymphatic Drainage for Breast Cancer Patients

At Beyond the Scars, we’re honored to support breast cancer patients through specialized oncology lymphatic drainage. This gentle therapy helps reduce swelling, improve circulation, and support well-being during and after treatment.

The Truth About Aftercare

Let’s talk about it — cost. Surgery isn’t cheap, and aftercare can feel like “one more thing.” But here’s the truth: your recovery should always be part of your surgery investment.

  • You didn’t come this far to stop halfway.
  • Your aftercare is what amplifies your results. It’s the difference between healing okay and healing amazing.
  • When you invest in proper post-op care, you’re protecting the work your surgeon did and giving your body the best chance to recover smoothly, avoid complications, and look incredible.
  • You chose the best surgeon for your transformation — now choose the right expert for your healing.

I’m a medical professional who specializes in post-op recovery, and my rates are comparable to standard lymphatic drainage sessions. The difference? You’re getting a trained nurse who knows exactly what your body needs — not a spa-level massage.

Because your results deserve the same level of care as your surgery.
