When will the seroma subside?

howdy123
I had an abdominoplasty with breast lift/augmentation after a large weight loss. My last jp drain came out on its own after 14 days. It was draining around 80 cc's every day. Now, I have a collection of fluid pooling down in my pubic area that continues to get worse everyday. How long will this go on? I still wear my abdominal binder 24/7 and I am not active in hopes to decrease this seroma. Also, I am worried that I will have sagging skin over my lower abdominal and pubic area because of this.
