Would you recommend stitching incisions up straight away after liposuction?

Asked By:Eleanoradoll in England, United Kingdom

A doctor I had a consult with for 360 lipo says that he doesn't use drains and he stitches the incisions up straight after surgery. My concern is draining. If the incisions are closed immediately where will the fluid go? I always thought surgeons either used drains or left the incisions open for a while first.
