Lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique that helps move lymph fluid through the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is part of your immune system and helps remove waste, excess fluid, and toxins from your tissues.
For facial esthetics, lymphatic drainage can:
* Reduce puffiness, especially under the eyes and around the face.
* Decrease swelling by encouraging excess fluid to drain.
* Improve circulation of lymph fluid, which supports healthy skin.
* Promote relaxation with slow, light, rhythmic movements.
* Support healing after certain facial treatments (when appropriate and not contraindicated).
