Fluid Pocket 2 Weeks Post Liposuction

July 1, 2010
Asked By:lisa ferd in manchester NH

I had lipo on my outer thighs done 16 days ago and I have a noticeable pocket of fluid that is tender to the touch and warm. I am seeing that seromas need to be drained before infection sets in; do you think that is what I might have. My legs look great otherwise, besides black and blue, but this pocket is extremely noticeable. thanks
