• Postoperative lymphatic drainage is a complementary treatment indicated after any surgical procedure, as it reduces the healing time of injuries and treats edema and pain that the patient may feel after plastic surgery.

  The objective is to stimulate the functioning of the lymphatic system, eliminating excess fluid present in the cells and consequently reducing retention. Drainage is essential in the post-operative period of different plastic surgeries, such as: liposuction, abdominoplasty, lifting and others to improve the results and the patient’s recovery process.

• Microcurrents are a type of electrical stimulation therapy, which belongs to low-intensity and low-frequency current. Microcurrent or MET can be used alternately or continuously depending on the treatment indication.

• Electrical stimulation also assists in the elimination of waste, local lymphatic drainage, oxygenating tissues, carrying out protein synthesis and consequently more energy production.

X-waves is a technology that stimulates collagen production, through local vasodilation and improvement in metabolic activity in the region where it is applied. Shock waves act on the release of toxins and cellular nutrition. When combined with other treatments, it presents excellent results in reducing cellulite and localized fat. Sessions last just 15 minutes, being a practical treatment for those who have a busy routine and don’t want to give up on even, toned skin.

• Tapping is a constrictive elastic bandage widely used in plastic surgery. Generally applied immediately after surgery, it brings numerous advantages to the patient post-operatively, preserving the body’s mobility and reducing the chances of complications such as edema or fibrosis.

• The laser can be a great ally in physiotherapy when applied to specific points to relieve pain and inflammation. The laser therapy technique is also very effective in healing and tissue regeneration, acting as a local anti-inflammatory analgesic.

  It reduces pain from injuries or pathologies such as osteoarthritis or post-operative edema and can also reduce the conduction speed of pain-receiving nerves, helping to control it.

• Physiotherapy in post-operative rehabilitation goes far beyond lymphatic drainage. Our patients perform various kinesiotherapy and respiratory exercises aimed at post-operative care that accelerate the healing process and reduce recovery time.

  Treatments are individualized and throughout the post-operative process, patients receive close monitoring from their plastic surgeon.

• Through a process called photobiomodulation (using red and infrared light), light energy applied to the area can alter and influence processes occurring at the cellular level of the body. In this case, light energy stimulates cellular metabolism, promotes the growth of new cells and promotes the healing of damaged cells.

  LED therapy can be used for a variety of treatments. For example, before or after surgery and in conjunction with rehabilitation programs. Patients experience a slight increase in body temperature and immediate pain relief after treatment, allowing a quick return to daily activities.

• Tecaretherapy means Capacitive and Resistive Electrical Transfer, that is, a way of generating heating in tissues.

  It is a treatment that uses electricity and heat in a non-invasive way. In physiotherapy, it can act in the treatment of chronic pain and assist in muscle recovery and the reduction of muscle spasms.
