Lymphodrainage (LPG) is a special massage which aids in the re-absorption of pre- and post-operative swelling, thereby speeding up recovery. It can also be performed - with a great many advantages - with the LPG-Endermologie method. It must be done by expert personnel who have taken special courses.

Is lymphodrainage needed after liposuction?

Lymphodrainage speeds up recovery and the swelling goes down much sooner. It is not indispensable, but it is, nonetheless, fundamental. Lymphatic Drainage is strongly recommended for all types of Liposuctions and Abdominoplasty procedures (tummy tuck); it makes a big difference.


When to expect results with ankle liposuction?

Surgeons sometimes perform liposuction (sometimes called suction lipectomy) in the ankle and lower calf areas. Whether it should be performed is a different question. Reduction in volume in the ankle area is dangerous and there will, of course, be the long-term metabolic, health, and contour problems that occurs with any adipose tissue removal. See the article, "The Belly Finds What The Thighs Lose," published in The New York Times, in May, 2011 for a introductory explanation of how reduction in subcutaneous fat results in increase in toxic, visceral fat long-term. These problems are not to be underestimated as 1000's of people cry out in desperation in online reviews months or years after their liposuction surgeries. People have been fully disabled by liposuction, even when done by surgeons who bill themselves as the "top," highly referred surgeons with decades of experience and to school credentials to their names. Before performing the procedure, the surgeon will just pinch and guess before inserting cannulas into your your ankle that has many tendons, bones and muscles that could be harmed in this unnecessary procedure.
