Congratulations! You have just had plastic surgery to improve your appearance.

Isn’t it frustrating that before you can begin to enjoy your new face or body, you must spend days or weeks feeling swollen and bruised?

Whether it was in person or online, we connected with one another because you have swelling, too. Board Certified Plastic Surgeons in San Diego, across Southern California, and in Tijuana, Mexico, refer their clients to me to reduce the heavy, tight feeling that postoperative swelling can bring.

Book your manual lymphatic drainage or fibrosis massage at my studio in Pacific Beach.
