There are currently three pumps in the Lympha Press® range. And if everything is clear with Lympha Press® PCD51 – this is the basic model, outwardly very different from the rest, then the other two models need to be dealt with. Visually, Lympha Press® Optimal Plus and Lympha Press® Optimal Mini are very similar – they have the same dimensions, about the same weight and almost the same appearance, but still the two models are different.

To facilitate the process of choosing and buying the pump you need, we have prepared this review with a detailed step-by-step analysis of all the differences between the two pumps.
