Specialist post-operative therapy to reduce swelling and accelerate healing — three to six sessions.

I — Overview

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a specialised gentle massage technique that supports the lymphatic system in clearing post-operative swelling, reducing bruising, and accelerating healing. It's most useful in the first three weeks after surgery — particularly for body-contouring patients.

The consultation

Sessions begin from day three to five post-procedure (depending on surgery type and surgeon recommendation). We adjust pressure, technique, and frequency based on your specific case.

Our approach

Our therapists are certified in Vodder and Leduc methods. Sessions take 60-75 minutes and are performed in your villa, which means no driving and no waiting room.

The session

Light, rhythmic strokes that move lymph toward functioning nodes. Many patients describe a deep relaxation; some fall asleep. The work is therapeutic, not vigorous.

After

No restrictions; the gentle nature of MLD means no recovery is needed from the session itself. Most patients schedule three to six sessions over their first three weeks.

Pricing

Indicative packages, in Australian dollars and Indonesian rupiah. Every plan is priced individually after consultation.

Frequently asked

For body contouring (liposculpture, abdominoplasty, thigh lift), yes — patients with MLD have measurably less swelling and faster recovery than those without. For breast and facial procedures the benefit is more modest.
Day three to five post-surgery in most cases. Earlier is too soon (active inflammation needs to settle); later than two weeks reduces benefit.
Three is standard for most procedures; six for body contouring. Beyond six, marginal benefit drops.
No — MLD is light and rhythmic. Most patients describe deep relaxation. If a therapist is using significant pressure, it isn't MLD.
Yes, and we encourage it. We can teach simple maintenance techniques you can continue at home.
