How long will I be leaking after liposuction?

Hello and thank you for your question. Drainage typically stops in 24-48 hours. I would seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon
for a full evaluation and advice. Best,

Thank you for your question! For my patients having liposuction, they typically have drains for 2 weeks post surgery. I recommend discussing specific post op questions with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck!

Thank you for your question.  I typically find that most patients stop having some drainage within 48 hours after surgery.  That may vary a little bit.  Best of luck to you.
