Advanced MLD and Soft Tissue Techniques for Post-Plastic Surgery Clients-Charlotte, NC April Miami 2026
This advanced 2-day live virtual course trains licensed manual therapists (LMTs, PTs, PTAs, CLTs, etc.) in specialized techniques for post-cosmetic surgery care. The curriculum covers the anatomy and physiology of the lymphatic system, an overview of common cosmetic surgical procedures (face, neck, and body) and their post-operative implications, and evidence-informed manual therapies to improve recovery. Through interactive lectures, demonstrations, and case discussions, participants learn to manage post-surgical edema, pain, fibrosis, seromas, and scars. Emphasis is placed on Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), scar mobilization, compression garment strategies, and patient education – all aligned with current best practices and Virginia Board requirements. Upon completion, therapists will be equipped to safely and effectively support cosmetic surgery patients’ healing process, optimizing outcomes and patient well-being. CLT is not required, but you will need to take an online one day lymphatic overview course if you are not MLD or CLT certified.
