What the massage does
Lymphatic Facial Massage uses light, targeted movements to encourage the removal of excess fluid and reduce visible puffiness after surgery or everyday fluid retention. For post-surgical clients it supports reduced swelling and bruising; for non-surgical clients it helps improve circulation and skin tone. The technique focuses on stimulating lymph flow rather than deep tissue work, so pressure is gentle and measured.
Clients frequently report feeling lighter and less swollen after sessions, with quicker reduction of tightness and soreness in treated areas. While individual responses vary, many people find the massage complements their surgeon’s post-op plan or their regular skincare routine, helping the face settle into a smoother, more balanced appearance without aggressive manipulation.
What to expect during session
A typical appointment is 30 minutes and costs $75. Your therapist will work with you on comfort, using gentle strokes that follow natural drainage pathways in the face and neck. Expect steady, rhythmic movements and frequent check-ins about pressure—therapists balance effectiveness with tenderness, especially in early post-op stages or in areas with bruising or soreness.
We also teach simple at-home techniques and self-care tips so you can support drainage between visits. Staff are experienced with post-op recovery and frequently modify sessions for sensitive or healing tissue, prioritizing client comfort while aiming for measurable decreases in swelling and improved mobility of soft tissue.
Timing and follow-up care
When to begin and how often to return depends on your surgeon’s clearance and your individual recovery goals. Many post-op clients schedule multiple sessions early in recovery and continue as swelling subsides; therapists at 360 Body & Beauty will recommend a follow-up plan tailored to your procedure and progress rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule.
