Hi, I had a tummy tuck and bbl august 27, 2013 in another country. I had another ps take a look and she decided I needed jp tubes inserted back in me. While she was poking to insert so much fluid just gushed out; nevertheless I have a seroma. Since it's been there so long How do you resolve an issue of this nature?? In other words do I have to have another tummy tuck or how do you drain something of this? Can lipo hell it or kill me?? Please help
