Post-Op Massage Helps Heal the Zoom Effect

Dermatologists and plastic surgeons have seen an unexpected uptick in procedures this year. Calling it the “Zoom effect”, part of the increase stems from complaints of patients in reference to double chins, wrinkles, under-eye bags and other imperfections noticed on themselves while videoconferencing. 

As one of the most highly doctor- referred licensed massage therapists in the area, Jen (Adams) Killgo, at Jubilee Healing Arts, in Daphne, sees post-op plastic surgery clients specifically to help facilitate healing after cosmetic procedures. Lymphatic Drainage massage mimics the pulse and flow within the lymph system to reduce swelling and stimulate the immune system. This gentle, superficial massage technique helps move stagnant fluids out of surrounding body tissue and back into the lymphatic vessels. The STRAIT Method Scar Tissue Release technique can soften collagen so that the area can heal more efficiently with less scarring, while making surrounding tissues more functional and less problematic.

Killgo can begin seeing clients as early as 72 hours after a procedure. To ensure an appointment is available, post-op massage sessions should be made at the time the procedure is scheduled so that the services will be of the greatest potential benefit.
