Hello, Considering your surgery was 3 -4 months ago, it is still fairly early in the process. Seromas that don't resolve with needle drainage or internal tubes often need to be operated on to allow the seroma to be adequately treated. It's difficult to be patient, but often that is the answer - patience. Make sure your surgeon on board certified in plastic surgery, or else seek one who is.
