What is the best position to sleep 2 weeks post tummy tuck with seroma? I do sleep with my compression off only for the shower!

Thank you for your questions. There is not really a specific position that is going to improve seroma. You need to wear your garment and avoid certain strenuous activities. Make sure you discuss this with your surgeon and follow his or her specific instructions.Good luck!Dallas R. Buchanan, MD, FACSOwner & Board-Certified Plastic SurgeonVIVIFY plastic surgery

Most patients find it most comfortable to sleep in a semi reclined position with pillow support under the knees. This position takes tension off of the abdomen. Your surgeon can let you know when it is okay to sleep on your side based on how you've been progressing through recovery.

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  Although position will not materially impact your ability to avoid a seroma, I would recommend continuing to wear a compression garment as much as possible, while also avoiding twisting activities that causes sheer forces between your muscle and skin layers.  Hope this helps.
