Whether you’ve just had liposuction, a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), breast augmentation, or a chin lipo procedure-your transformation doesn’t end in the operating room. In fact, post-op care is one of the most important steps to ensuring optimal results, a smooth recovery, and long-term satisfaction.

That’s where Wellure Spa Body Sculpting comes in. We specialize in post-operative body sculpting and lymphatic drainage, helping patients heal faster, feel better, and maximize their results-without breaking the bank.

Why Surgeons Refer Their Patients to Post-Op Specialists

Many plastic surgeons recommend their patients receive post-op lymphatic drainage, body contouring treatments, and healing support services within days of surgery. These treatments are designed to:

Reduce swelling and inflammation
Prevent fluid build-up (seromas)
Minimize scarring and fibrosis
Accelerate healing
Sculpt and refine the surgical area for the best possible outcome

Wellure Spa works in partnership with top surgeons in Los Angeles and beyond to provide this crucial care in a safe, nurturing, and affordable environment.

Common Surgeries That Benefit from Post-Op Body Sculpting

Everybody is different, but the most common procedures that benefit from post-op treatments include:

Liposuction (Stomach, Arms, Thighs, Back, Flanks)

Post-lipo swelling and fluid retention are common. At Wellure, we offer Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), Ultrasound Cavitation, and Radiofrequency Skin Tightening to reduce puffiness, smooth the skin, and support lymph flow.

Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

After a BBL, shaping and symmetry matter. We help reduce swelling and maintain your new silhouette with gentle, targeted treatments that respect the integrity of your fat transfer.

Breast Augmentation or Lift

We support healing around the breast area with manual lymphatic techniques, red light therapy, and non-invasive skin tightening to minimize post-op discomfort and help scars fade more quickly.

Chin & Neck Lipo

Swelling and bruising can linger for weeks after chin lipo. Our treatments reduce inflammation and promote collagen production so you can reveal your snatched jawline sooner.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Recovering from a tummy tuck takes time. We support abdominal healing through radiofrequency therapy, scar care protocols, and ongoing lymphatic support to smooth, tighten, and tone the area.

What Kind of Post-Op Treatments Does Wellure Spa Offer?

At Wellure Spa, we customize every treatment to your surgery type, body, and goals. Our services include:

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) A gentle, highly specialized massage technique that promotes fluid movement and dramatically reduces post-op swelling and discomfort. Often recommended 2–3 times a week in the early stages of healing.
Ultrasound Cavitation Used to break up stubborn fluid pockets and prevent fibrosis, especially after lipo. Helps smooth out uneven texture and support detoxification.
Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening RF uses heat to stimulate collagen production and tighten loose skin after fat removal or stretching.
Red Light Therapy Accelerates healing, improves skin elasticity, and reduces inflammation. A favorite for its calming, restorative benefits.
Scar & Skin Recovery Support We offer custom scar treatments and skin-nourishing protocols using top-of-the-line products to minimize scarring and improve skin tone.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

A gentle, highly specialized massage technique that promotes fluid movement and dramatically reduces post-op swelling and discomfort. Often recommended 2–3 times a week in the early stages of healing.

At Wellure Spa, we use Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) as the cornerstone of post-op recovery care. MLD is a light, rhythmic massage that helps stimulate your lymphatic system, which is responsible for clearing excess fluid, toxins, and cellular waste from the body. After surgery, the lymphatic system can slow down, leading to puffiness, pressure, and delayed healing. MLD gets everything moving again-naturally and gently.

What sets our MLD apart is that we tailor every session to your specific surgery and body type. Whether you're recovering from liposuction, a tummy tuck, BBL, or chin lipo, MLD helps minimize scar tissue, smooth out irregularities, and accelerate your results. Most patients notice a difference after just one session, with reduced swelling, improved comfort, and even visible contouring benefits. It’s like hitting the reset button on your healing process.

Ultrasound Cavitation

Used to break up stubborn fluid pockets and prevent fibrosis, especially after lipo. Helps smooth out uneven texture and support detoxification.

Ultrasound Cavitation uses low-frequency sound waves to target and break up fluid build-up and fat cell debris left behind after procedures like liposuction and body sculpting. After surgery, many clients experience fluid retention or hardness in certain areas-this is where cavitation shines. It breaks up those stubborn pockets and supports the body's natural detox pathways to flush them out.

At Wellure, we often combine cavitation with MLD and red light therapy for the most effective post-op healing protocol. It’s completely non-invasive, safe, and relaxing. Clients often describe a warm, buzzing sensation as the device glides over the skin. In just a few sessions, we can dramatically improve skin texture, reduce swelling, and help you get closer to that smooth, sculpted result your surgery was designed to deliver.

Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening

RF uses heat to stimulate collagen production and tighten loose skin after fat removal or stretching.

Radiofrequency (RF) therapy is one of our go-to tools for tightening loose or stretched skin after cosmetic procedures. By gently heating the deeper layers of the skin, RF triggers collagen and elastin production, which are key to firm, youthful skin. It’s especially helpful after liposuction or fat transfer, where the skin may not bounce back immediately on its own.

At Wellure Spa, we use RF to target specific zones-like the abdomen, arms, thighs, or jawline-depending on your surgical area. It’s pain-free, requires no downtime, and provides cumulative benefits over a series of treatments. Most clients notice visible skin tightening after 3–4 sessions, with continued improvement over several months. Paired with MLD and scar care, RF helps you look smooth, toned, and radiant as you heal.

Red Light Therapy

Accelerates healing, improves skin elasticity, and reduces inflammation. A favorite for its calming, restorative benefits.

Red Light Therapy is a soothing, therapeutic treatment that uses LED light at specific wavelengths to penetrate the skin and energize your cells. It boosts circulation, reduces inflammation, and encourages tissue repair, making it a powerful ally for post-op recovery. After surgery, your body is working hard to heal, and red light helps speed up that process from the inside out.

Clients love how relaxing it is…just lay back under our red light panels while your body soaks in the healing energy. Many notice reduced pain and swelling after just one session, along with brighter skin tone and faster scar fading. It’s also perfect for calming irritated or sensitive skin following more intensive treatments like RF or cavitation. At Wellure, we often recommend it as a gentle add-on to any post-op care session.

Scar & Skin Recovery Support

We offer custom scar treatments and skin-nourishing protocols using top-of-the-line products to minimize scarring and improve skin tone.

Your skin deserves as much care as your new shape. That’s why we offer specialized scar therapy and skin recovery protocols to minimize discoloration, flatten raised scars, and restore smooth texture. We use medical-grade products rich in collagen boosters, peptides, and botanical extracts to nourish and rebuild the skin barrier after surgery.

Each product is hand-selected for your skin type, incision placement, and healing stage. Whether you’re dealing with a fresh surgical scar or older post-op pigmentation, we offer gentle, effective solutions that support long-term results. Our clients love the way these treatments help them feel more confident in their new bodies, because a beautiful transformation deserves beautiful skin to match.

How Soon Can I Start Post-Op Treatments?

Most clients begin post-op care within 3–7 days after surgery (with surgeon approval). Early intervention makes a big difference-the sooner we start, the better your results will be.

For best results, we typically recommend:

6–12 lymphatic sessions depending on the procedure
Follow-up maintenance as needed to preserve your results long-term

How Long Until I See Results?

Healing is a journey, but most clients notice:

Visible reduction in swelling after the first session
Significant sculpting and smoothing by session 4–6
Dramatic results within 4–6 weeks post-surgery when paired with our expert care and your surgeon’s aftercare protocol
