Are we supposed to use Water Pills after liposuction surgery? Tummy Tuck Surgery?

October 12, 2015
Asked By:im_doing_me in Palm Beach, FL

I've read many blogs from RS Sisters and see that many are purchasing and using Water Pills (OTC) post op after having liposuction. Is this a recommended practice? If so what is the recommended dosage? I'm 5'6" 170lbs. Thank you
