Relief you can see. Healing you can feel.

What Is Facial & Dental Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage Therapy?

Dental and oral surgeries—such as wisdom-tooth removal, jaw surgery, implants, root canals, and sinus procedures—often lead to inflammation, swelling, and fluid buildup that slow healing and increase discomfort. Chronic TMJ tension, clenching, and facial puffiness can further disrupt lymphatic flow and aggravate jaw pain.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) uses gentle, precise, rhythmic movements to stimulate the lymphatic pathways of the face and neck, encouraging fluid movement, reducing inflammation, and helping the body clear waste from swollen or painful areas.

At Austin Lymphatic, we use clinically informed, Vodder-based lymphatic drainage techniques designed for sensitive post-operative tissues—never painful, never forceful, always supportive.

Relief you can see. Healing you can feel.

What Is Facial & Dental Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage Therapy?

Lymphatic Drainage + Dental / Jaw Recovery

Many clients describe this therapy as releasing tension they didn’t even realize they were holding—leaving the face and neck feeling lighter, softer, and noticeably more at ease, with relief that continues to deepen over the next 24–48 hours.

Our specialized facial lymphatic drainage can help to:

Reduce post-surgical swelling after dental, oral, and maxillofacial procedures
Ease tension, pressure, and pain in the jaw, cheeks, and neck
Support faster healing and reduce inflammation
Decrease puffiness and fluid retention in the face
Improve mobility in the jaw (helpful for TMJ, clenching, and limited opening)
Reduce sinus congestion and pressure headaches
Support symmetry and comfort during the healing process
Calm the nervous system and help the jaw “unclench”

Clear Pricing, Exceptional Care

At Austin Lymphatic, pricing stays simple, honest, and accessible.

Our rates haven’t changed in over five years, even with the most skilled and highly trained lymphatic teams in Austin. We charge by the hour, not by add-ons or itemized services. If your therapist uses cupping, taping, essential oils, microcurrent, or other tools, there’s never an up-charge—your care is fully customized without surprise fees.  

Many clinics charge 15% to 97% more for similar services, but we believe great care should remain within reach. Every session adapts to your body and your needs at the price you expect to pay because we believe cost should never limit what your therapist can do for your body.

Dental & Jaw Lymphatic Drainage FAQs

Can MLD help reduce swelling after dental surgery or tooth extraction?

How soon after a dental procedure can I start lymphatic drainage?

Most clients can begin MLD within 24–48 hours if cleared by their surgeon; early treatment helps control swelling, reduce pressure, and ease recovery.

Can I get lymphatic drainage if I still have stitches in my mouth?
