What the procedure involves
Seroma Removal (by RN) is performed by a licensed Registered Nurse who performs sterile aspiration of post-surgical fluid using medical-grade supplies, then provides aftercare guidance. Appointments are set for a 45-minute visit and the service fee is $95. The RN documents the amount removed and any immediate observations for your records and surgeon if needed.
This treatment is intended for post-op fluid pockets that cause localized swelling after procedures such as liposuction, tummy tucks, or BBLs. Our Fort Worth location near South Main is convenient for commuters using I-35W, and for students or workers from nearby TCU or Sundance Square who schedule appointments before or after their day.
What to expect during appointment
A brief assessment precedes the procedure so the RN can locate the fluid pocket and review any surgical notes you provide. The area is prepared using sterile technique and the nurse performs controlled aspiration to remove accumulated fluid. The environment is clinical and focused on safety; medical-grade supplies are used throughout and aftercare instructions are reviewed before you leave.
You may feel pressure and relief as fluid is removed and some temporary discomfort afterward. The RN will explain simple wound care steps and what sensations are normal. We offer flexible scheduling, including evening and weekend appointments, to accommodate Fort Worth commuters, TCU students, and busy families balancing work and social life.
Benefits and practical limits
Professional seroma drainage can promote healing, reduce swelling, and improve comfort during recovery when performed by an RN using sterile technique. The service may be combined with lymphatic massage for optimal drainage and follow-up care. While many clients notice relief, results vary and no specific medical outcome can be guaranteed.
Some seromas can reaccumulate and require repeat visits, and this service is not a replacement for your surgeon's post-operative plan. If you have concerns about infection, wound separation, or systemic symptoms, follow your surgeon's advice and coordinate care; the RN will advise when further surgical follow-up is appropriate.
