How to reduce the chance of getting a seroma at tummy tuck?

February 16, 2022

Hi there, Are there any tips for reducing my chances of getting a seroma forming after tt surgery? I will be getting a revision in May and want to be prepared for the best outcome, especially when my surgeon puts in the hard work to correct after first surgery. I had a seroma form about week 2 after surgery last time. Thanks so much, appreciate your time and shared knowledge
