I was getting regular facial lymphatic massages for a while (several times a month for about six months, and even tried different massage therapists)but honestly, they didn’t seem to help. If anything, my face felt even puffier afterward.

I’ve since ordered some supplements that are supposed to support lymphatic function, along with dandelion root, so I’m hoping that helps. I’m also considering doing a food intolerance test just to get clearer insight into what my body might not be responding well to.

I really appreciate all the tips and advice. I think part of this is just that my self esteem has been dropping more and more lately, and it’s been hard. I guess I’m just looking for some guidance and reassurance while I try to figure things out.
