Can my primary physician drain my seroma or left behind tumescent fluid?

Seromas after liposuction can happen but are not very common. The best thing is to see your liposuction doctor first and then discuss seroma management.

I think you would need to check with your own family doctor.  However, I personally would not want to ask a family physician to do this for one of my patients.  They would not be accustomed to dealing with this issue and I doubt they would feel very comfortable having to manage it.  When patients come to me from a long distance I always tell them that they need to account for follow-up appointments to make sure they get proper aftercare.  This is all part of getting a good longterm result.

Hi, there.  I can understand 6 hour travel time; however, I think you should follow-up with your plastic surgeon for your surgery, including aspiration of fluid.  Your plastic surgeon performed surgery on you and "knows" your body.  He should be qualified in managing post-operative complication whereas I wonder if a family doctor is trained or qualified to address plastic surgery issue.  Good luck with your recovery.
