Safe, personalized recovery after aesthetic surgical procedures.

Postoperative treatment with lymphatic drainage at Anthea

Postoperative care is a fundamental stage to ensure the best results after aesthetic surgery. At Anthea Health & Aesthetics, we have a team of therapists specialized in post-surgical recovery who will accompany you throughout the healing process.

Our postoperative treatments are designed to accelerate recovery, reduce inflammation, prevent and treat fibrosis, improve the appearance of scars, and stimulate tissue regeneration. We use manual lymphatic drainage techniques combined with advanced technology such as pressotherapy and ultrasound to optimize results.

Post-surgical lymphatic drainage is essential after procedures such as liposuction, abdominoplasty, mammoplasty, and others. At our Pérez Zeledón and Uvita de Osa locations, we begin treatment according to your surgeon's instructions, generally between 48 and 72 hours after the procedure.

Each recovery plan is personalized according to the type of surgery, the patient's needs, and the treating physician's recommendations. We work in coordination with plastic surgeons in the southern zone of Costa Rica to ensure optimal and safe recovery.

Frequently asked questions

When can I start lymphatic drainage after surgery?+

How many postoperative lymphatic drainage sessions do I need?+

Typically 10-20 sessions, depending on the surgery type and individual response. First sessions are usually more frequent (daily or every 2 days) and then gradually spaced out.

Do you treat postoperative patients from surgeries done outside Costa Rica?+
