I'm having the seroma drained weekly, today was 75cc... Last week 100 cc and the week before 150. So it's getting better. The thing is, I was reallly flat. I pulled some scar tissue but no major issues. I know it's early to tell, but my stomach has like an indent directly in he middle that kind of divides my stomach in two.
