I am 3 weeks post op of a mini abdominoplasty with liposuction I had a drain in for 2 weeks and it was pulled after putting out 30 ml a day for 2 days in a row. I had it aspirated 5 days ago &have more fluid again. I am going back to have it aspirated on Tuesday. I live in florida and had my surgery in georgia otherwise I'd go twice a week. Will this delay my healing by waiting 7 days between aspirations? Is there anything I can do to stop this and what if any complications can occur?
