Does lymphatic drainage massage hurt?

No. It is one of the gentlest treatments available; the pressure barely indents the skin. Proper lymphatic drainage is soothing, not painful.

How long is a lymphatic drainage session?

Session length is tailored to individual needs and can last up to 60 minutes.

Can I have lymphatic drainage after cosmetic surgery like a BBL or liposuction?

Yes. It is commonly recommended after liposuction, Lipo 360, BBL, tummy tuck, and mommy makeovers to reduce swelling and support healing, but only once your surgeon has cleared you to begin.

Who should avoid lymphatic drainage massage?

It is generally avoided for those with blood clots, deep vein thrombosis, active infection, or certain heart or kidney conditions. Health history is reviewed before treatment, and a doctor should be consulted if unsure.

What it is

The art of gentle flow.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialized, very light-pressure massage that works with the lymphatic system sitting just beneath the skin. Using slow, rhythmic, wave-like strokes, your therapist gently guides built-up fluid toward your lymph nodes, where the body naturally processes and clears it.

It feels nothing like a deep-tissue massage. There’s no kneading and no pressing into muscle — just soft, soothing movements designed to calm the nervous system while encouraging your body to do what it does best. Most guests describe it as one of the most relaxing treatments they’ve ever had.

The benefits

Why our guests love it.

Whether you’re chasing that light, de-puffed feeling or supporting your body through a season of change, lymphatic drainage offers gentle, whole-body benefits.

Less bloating & puffiness

Encourages trapped fluid to move, easing water retention around the stomach, face, legs, and arms so you feel lighter.

Supports circulation

Gentle stimulation helps keep fluid and nutrients moving, supporting healthy circulation throughout the body.

A natural reset

By encouraging lymph flow, MLD supports your body’s own clearing of waste and excess fluid — your built-in detox, gently assisted.

Deep relaxation

The slow, repetitive rhythm calms the nervous system, melts stress, and leaves you feeling genuinely restored.

Brighter, calmer skin

Reduced puffiness can leave skin looking clearer and more radiant — a beautiful complement to your facial and body treatments.

Eases post-surgery swelling

For those recovering from cosmetic procedures, MLD can help reduce swelling and support a more comfortable healing journey.

Who it’s for

Made for your moment.

From post-surgery recovery to everyday wellness — here’s who benefits most.

Who manual lymphatic drainage massage is for: post-op recovery, bloating and water retention, low immunity and detox support, stress and wellness, and pre- and post-travel — Aesthetic Vibes Med Spa

It’s especially popular after cosmetic procedures like BBL, Lipo 360, tummy tuck, and mommy makeover to ease swelling and support a smoother recovery.

A note on safety. Lymphatic drainage isn’t recommended for everyone — including those with blood clots, active infection, or certain heart or kidney conditions. If you’re recovering from surgery, please follow your surgeon’s timeline. We’ll always review your health history first to make sure it’s the right fit for you.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions.

What is manual lymphatic drainage massage?

It’s a gentle, light-pressure massage that uses slow, rhythmic strokes to encourage the natural movement of lymph fluid just beneath the skin. The goal is to reduce fluid buildup, ease puffiness, and help your body clear waste more efficiently — all while feeling deeply relaxing.

Does it hurt?

Not at all. True lymphatic drainage is one of the gentlest treatments there is — the pressure barely indents the skin. If a session ever feels painful, that isn’t proper lymphatic drainage. Most guests find it soothing enough to fall asleep.

How long is a session?

Session length is tailored to your individual needs and can last up to 60 minutes. We’ll recommend the right amount of time for you based on your goals during your visit.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on your goal. For general wellness, a single session feels wonderful, and many guests enjoy a regular rhythm of every one to two weeks, then monthly upkeep. For post-surgery recovery, a series of more frequent sessions is typical — we’ll build a personalized plan with you.

Can I have it after cosmetic surgery, like a BBL or lipo?

Yes — lymphatic drainage is commonly recommended after procedures such as liposuction, Lipo 360, BBL, tummy tuck, and mommy makeovers to help reduce swelling and support healing. The most important thing is timing: always start only once your surgeon has cleared you, and follow their recovery instructions.

Is there anyone who shouldn’t have it?

Lymphatic drainage isn’t suitable for everyone. It’s generally avoided for those with blood clots, deep vein thrombosis, active infection, or certain heart or kidney conditions. We review your health history before every treatment, and we always recommend checking with your doctor if you’re unsure.

What should I do before and after my session?

Drink plenty of water before and after — hydration helps your lymphatic system move fluid efficiently. Wear comfortable, loose clothing, and try to keep moving gently afterward with a light walk. Many guests notice they feel lighter that same day.

Endermologie® Body Treatments

Transforming Your Natural Beauty

Welcome to the world of Endermologie® by LPG, a revolutionary non-invasive treatment designed to enhance your natural beauty and well-being. Let’s delve into what Endermologie® is, explore its incredible benefits, and understand the number of treatments needed for optimal results

What is Endermologie®?

Endermologie® is an advanced aesthetic technology developed by LPG that utilizes mechanical massage to stimulate the skin and underlying tissues. This FDA-approved treatment is renowned for its ability to target various concerns such as cellulite reduction, body contouring, and skin tightening.

Benefits of Endermologie® Treatments

Cellulite Reduction: Endermologie® works wonders in reducing the appearance of cellulite by improving blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. This results in smoother, firmer skin.
Body Contouring: Say goodbye to stubborn fat pockets! Endermologie® helps reshape your body contours, providing a more toned and sculpted appearance.
Skin Tightening: As we age, our skin loses elasticity. Endermologie® stimulates collagen and elastin production, contributing to firmer and tighter skin.
Improved Circulation: The mechanical massage involved in Endermologie® enhances blood circulation, promoting overall skin health and a radiant complexion.

Number of Treatments Needed

The number of Endermologie® sessions required varies depending on individual goals and concerns. Generally, a series of 12-18 sessions is recommended to achieve optimal results. Many clients experience visible improvements after just a few sessions, with continued enhancement over the course of their treatment plan.

Our experienced practitioners will assess your unique needs and customize a treatment plan tailored to achieve your desired results.
