What the treatment involves
A session is a 60-minute, hands-on treatment using gentle, directional lymphatic techniques to encourage fluid movement and ease post-operative swelling. At Body Sculpt Studios we combine manual lymphatic work with targeted options listed in your service: ultrasound, radio frequency skin tightening, fibrosis care, wood therapy and faja assistance when appropriate.
Before work begins the therapist assesses drains, incision sites and your surgeon’s clearance. Add-ons such as seroma drainage, surgical drain removal, stitches removal and a doctor telehealth session are available. Therapists also teach aftercare techniques so you can continue safe lymphatic support between visits.
How it supports recovery
Lymphatic drainage helps move excess interstitial fluid and can reduce the sensation of tightness and discomfort after surgery. Clients commonly report reduced swelling, less stiffness, and a lighter feeling after sessions—outcomes described in our reviews—while improved circulation supports the body’s natural clearance mechanisms without promising a specific medical result.
Timing and frequency matter: many clients return weekly or more often during their initial recovery window. Our busiest months—January, April, May and November—reflect common surgical timing; we recommend booking early-morning or weekend appointments to fit transit-oriented schedules in Central Harlem and nearby neighborhoods.
What to expect aftercare
After a session you may notice immediate relief from tightness and visible reductions in swelling over the following days. Practical aftercare includes staying well hydrated, using recommended compression garments or a faja, following wound-care instructions, and attending follow-up sessions if fibrosis or persistent fluid requires continued attention.
Packages are valid for 30 days and the single-session price is listed at $1750 for a 60-minute appointment. Financing through CHERRY is available (plans from about $18–$49 per month). Please follow your surgeon’s clearance and bring garment guidance or surgical notes to the first visit.
