Each session is delivered with expert care to create a relaxing, restorative experience. Clients often leave feeling lighter, more at ease, and better supported in their recovery.

HOW DOES IT WORK

Gentle Techniques for Effective Results

Lymphatic drainage massage is designed to support the body’s lymphatic system, which plays a key role in removing waste, excess fluid, and toxins.

When this system becomes sluggish, often due to surgery, inflammation, or lifestyle factors, fluid can accumulate and cause:

  • Swelling
  • Discomfort
  • A feeling of heaviness

This treatment helps stimulate the natural movement of lymph fluid throughout the body to encourage proper circulation and more efficient fluid balance. By supporting this process, lymphatic drainage can help reduce visible swelling and improve comfort during recovery.

For post-surgical patients, this can be especially beneficial in the weeks following a procedure, as the body works to heal and adjust.

Regular sessions may help promote a smoother recovery experience, while also supporting long-term wellness by keeping the lymphatic system functioning optimally.

DEFINING THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

Personalized Care for Recovery and Wellness

Lymphatic drainage massage is an excellent option for individuals seeking support during the healing process, particularly after cosmetic or surgical procedures.

It is commonly recommended for patients that experience or wish to improve:

  • Swelling
  • Fluid retention
  • Discomfort as the body recovers from injury, surgery, etc.
  • Puffiness
  • Inflammation
  • Feeling heavy in the limbs, face, etc.
  • Poor circulation

If you are in recovery or are looking to feel balanced and refreshed, lymphatic drainage offers a gentle, supportive solution for your needs.

What Our Patients Say

Four years ago, I had breast augmentation surgery outside of the country and experienced a very serious complication with infection. After recovering, my breasts became deformed, and I honestly lost hope.I consulted with three different plastic surgeons, and each one told me there was very little they could do for me. The options they offered were not encouraging.When I met Dr. Capraro, I instantly felt trust and connection. He truly listened to me and gave me hope again.

Lyudmila Toktabieva

From beginning to end Dr. Capraro, Nicole, Alli, Livy, JoJo and Lucy have been great! Everyone there are so nice. Every call or email with questions I had leading up to and after my surgery were answered immediately and to great length. Every post-op appointment was on time and very thorough. They were always very nice, professional and made the whole experience super calming.This was a first major surgery for me and I always felt at ease with Dr. Capraro and his team.

Wendy Hibbs

I can’t give enough stars to this practice! I wouldn’t trust anyone other than Dr. Capraro as my plastic surgeon. I’ve gone to him for multiple procedures, including a more complex breast lift, and I’ve been absolutely amazed by my results every single time.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Capraro and his entire team! I recently had a breast lift and augmentation, and the experience from start to finish was incredible.

Dr. Capraro is the BEST plastic surgeon EVER!!! He fixed my botched breast reduction and implant exchange surgery from a couple years ago and I couldn’t be HAPPIER. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Capraro!!! Also, his staff, is the BEST too!!

Cindy Macek

Dr. Capraro is nothing short of amazing. I was nervous before my consultation in general and also because of just being self conscious. Dr. Capraro and Allie were both so nice and welcoming during the consult. He spent so much time making sure any and all of our questions were answered and that we were comfortable.

Tionna Jones

Dr. Capraro is nothing short of amazing. I was nervous before my consultation in general and also because of just being self conscious. Dr. Capraro and Allie were both so nice and welcoming during the consult. He spent so much time making sure any and all of our questions were answered and that we were comfortable. Livia was wonderful during all of my pre op appointments and so patient with all of my questions. My procedure was smooth and the visits from Nicole and Allie in the hospital were so nice. All of my follow up appointments have been wonderful and everyone is just so friendly and sweet. I get excited to come see everyone. The office has been accommodating with my schedule because I live over 3 hours away. I only have my 6 week follow up and one more follow up after that, but I will be sad to not see them after that. Overall, Dr. Capraro and his whole team are the only ones I would recommend for any type of procedure of this nature. I have been a mom since 16 years old and felt like I’ve had my grandmothers body since then. So this mommy makeover was hugely important to me to feel good about myself after I’ve worked so hard to lose weight 3 kids later. I am beyond happy with my results and the whole entire process from consult to the very end.

I had a breast lift with implants and lipo, and the entire experience with Capraro Plastic Surgery & Regenerative Aesthetics has been amazing. The staff is incredibly professional, on top of every detail, and always quick to answer my questions — even after surgery. I’m just over two weeks post-op and already so happy with my results. Highly recommend!

Kerry Kraft

I highly recommend Capraro Plastic Surgery & Regenerative Aesthetics and Nicole Kenyon, PA-C, MHS, for anyone looking for an aesthetic injector. Nicole is truly an artist who understands facial anatomy deeply. She took the time to listen to my goals and delivered results that are refreshed and youthful without looking 'done.' The entire office environment is professional and welcoming. If you want natural-looking results from a true expert, go see Nicole!
