Pre & Post Cosmetic Aftercare Services

After any surgical procedure, patients tend to experience severe swelling and/or bruising, which can last up to a couple months post treatment. However, this can disrupt the body's natural lymphatic drainage, leading to reduced healing in the form of fibrosis and the possibility of developing seromas. 

Our post surgery massages help to accelerate your recovery and decrease the chance of irregularities, lumps, bumps, and scar tissue formation, which can all affect the final outcome. Our treatments also help the skin to tighten and conform to your new body shape. Treatments such as MLD are now seen as mandatory after a surgery and is recommended by the best UK surgeons.

A seroma is a buildup of clear fluid in a body and is a common complication of surgery.  The drainage of a seroma involves inserting a needle into the seroma to remove the fluid.

 Many seromas do not require treatment, as the body will often reabsorb the fluid. However, treatment may be necessary if the seroma causes discomfort, pain, pressure, or tightness.

Drains, Clips/Staples and Steristrips are all used within surgery to ensure your body heals correctly and safely.

However, they do require a certain level of care and must be removed by a specialist if and when required. It is important that wounds and scars are looked after correctly and at Smart Skin Aeshetics, we ensure just that!
