Dear doctors, I am having a mini tummy tuck soon. My surgeon mentioned he performs both drain and drainless tummy tucks. He said he’s 50/50. He said something he doesn’t like about drainless is that the skin has no space in between the muscle and that’s just not natural. I don’t really understand what he meant by this. How does that change anything to me? I have read a bit about drainless and it seems safer overall. Can you tell me if that statement is true for a mini tummy tuck? Thank you
