At a Glance
What is Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage?
Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage is a dynamic, sculpting variation of the classic Vodder lymphatic drainage. Using scooping movements and targeted pressure, it activates lymph flow, reduces water retention, and visibly contours tissue.
This technique is often called "manual liposculpture" because it makes the silhouette look firmer for a while. Beyond Brazil, it became known mainly through the USA.
At MAEL Studio in Rodgau, we apply the authentic Brazilian technique with individual pressure adapted to your body, your goals, and your comfort zone.
Effects and Benefits
What Brazilian lymphatic drainage can do.
Visible Body Contouring
Legs, belly, and glutes appear firmer and more defined immediately — effect lasts up to 7 days.
Cellulite Reduction
Activation of microcirculation and lymph flow visibly smooths skin texture and reduces orange peel skin.
Detox & Drainage
Water retention and metabolic residues are actively drained — you feel lighter and more energized.
After procedures
After liposuction or cosmetic procedures, once your doctor agrees: gentle strokes support lymph flow.
Anti-Aging for Skin
Improved circulation and oxygen supply — skin appears fresher, plumper, more vital.
Enhanced Well-Being
Your nervous system calms down too: the treatment is deeply relaxing.

More about MAELFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you should know before your first appointment.
What is Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage?
Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage is a dynamic, sculpting variation of classic lymphatic drainage. Using scooping movements and targeted pressure, it activates lymph flow, reduces water retention, and visibly contours tissue. Often called "manual liposculpture".
How is it different from classic lymphatic drainage?
Classic Vodder lymphatic drainage is primarily medical — very gentle and decongestive. The Brazilian version is more intense, with higher pressure and a stronger aesthetic focus — the goal is visible body contouring and cellulite reduction.
How long do the results last?
Visible contour change is immediate, with peak after 24-48 hours. Depending on tissue structure, fluid intake, and activity level, the effect lasts 3-7 days. For sustained results, 1-3 sessions per week over 4-6 weeks are recommended.
How often should I have Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage?
For visible contouring: 1-3× per week over 4-6 weeks. For maintenance: 1× every 2-4 weeks. Before events or beach holidays: 2-3 sessions within 7-10 days for maximum effect.
Is Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage painful?
The treatment is more intense than classic lymphatic drainage but not painful. You feel pleasant pressure and a "tingling" as lymph flow activates. Intensity is adapted individually to your tolerance.
Who is the treatment for — and who should avoid it?
Suitable: cellulite, water retention, body contouring goals, post-cosmetic-surgery recovery, pregnancy (with medical clearance). Not suitable: acute inflammation, cancer, thrombosis, or open wounds. When in doubt, consult a doctor.
How much does Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage cost at MAEL Studio?
Brazilian Face Lymphatic Drainage from €75, Full Body from €150, Body & Face Combo from €190. With 5-pack cards, save up to €100. Fully transparent pricing — no hidden fees. Book online in Rodgau.
What should I do before and after the treatment?
Before: drink 1-2 liters of water, eat light, avoid heavy meals just before. After: hydrate generously (at least 2 liters), stay active instead of sitting long, no alcohol for 24 h. This optimally supports detoxification.
Does Brazilian lymphatic drainage help with lipedema?
Lipedema belongs in medical hands: Brazilian lymphatic drainage is a cosmetic treatment and does not replace prescribed manual lymphatic drainage or compression. If your doctor agrees, it can complement your care for a lighter body feeling.
Can I come after liposuction or surgery?
Yes, once your surgeon agrees. Tell us when booking which procedure you had and when. Hatixhe adapts pressure and sequence accordingly.
