Your Surgery Is
Only the Beginning

The healing process after cosmetic surgery can come with swelling, fluid retention, bruising, tenderness and changes in the tissues. This is where appropriate post-operative care can make an important difference to your recovery experience.

At Belíssima, we provide specialist post-op lymphatic drainage in Dublin, combining our Brazilian lymphatic drainage techniques with carefully selected treatments according to your individual needs and stage of recovery.

Every body heals differently. Your treatment plan should too.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Our Brazilian lymphatic drainage technique uses precise, rhythmic movements adapted to your recovery needs. The aim is to support lymphatic flow while providing gentle and comfortable care to recovering tissues.

Advanced Post-Op Technology

Where appropriate, we may incorporate carefully selected aesthetic technologies as part of your recovery plan. Treatments are chosen based on your individual needs rather than following a standard protocol for every client.

Your recovery is not a one-size-fits-all process.

The question we hear most

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

There is no single number of sessions that is right for everyone.

The number and frequency of treatments will depend on your procedure, your body's response, your stage of recovery and your surgeon's recommendations.

During your initial assessment, we can discuss your recovery and recommend a treatment plan that is appropriate for your individual needs.

Whether you are preparing for surgery or are already recovering, knowing what to expect can make the process much easier. Our team can guide you through your post-op treatment options and help you understand which treatments may be suitable for your stage of recovery.

Your Questions, Answered

The appropriate time to begin treatment depends on your procedure, your healing process and your surgeon's instructions. We recommend following your surgeon's post-operative guidance and obtaining clearance when required before starting treatment.

Lymphatic drainage is commonly included in post-operative recovery plans. However, the timing and treatment approach should always be adapted to your stage of healing and your surgeon's recommendations.

Post-operative treatment should be adapted to your stage of healing. The techniques used during recovery are generally gentle, and your practitioner will adjust the treatment according to your comfort and individual needs.

There is no universal number. Your needs depend on the procedure you have had, your recovery and how your body responds. We can recommend a personalised plan during your consultation.

Lymphatic drainage is commonly used as part of post-operative care to support lymphatic flow and help manage swelling and fluid retention during recovery.

Swelling can be a normal part of recovery, but the appropriate treatment depends on the cause, severity and stage of healing. We will assess your situation and work within your surgeon's recommendations.
