Seroma or Scar Tissue?

July 28, 2012
Asked By:plasticbeauty in Atlanta, GA

I had a small seroma after a mini tummy tuck. I got it drained until he could not pull anymore fluid out. There area is still puffy and is not starting to harden and my tummy looks worse because I did not have this bulge or lump before hand. I do not know what to do. My surgery was 5/2/12.
