"The reason postoperative lymphatic massage is so important in body contouring procedures like liposuction and abdominoplasty is because we're also shifting where the drainage goes."
"The tissue qualities are good. The patients tend to be healthier, lower BMI. They're just much more proactive. They understand that they have put a lot into losing the weight, and then they're going to put a lot into improving the outcome after their plastic surgery."
