    They all vary, I can’t remember what I started off at but they were removed once they were below 30ml in a 24 hr period. Mine were removed after 15 days of tummy tuck.

    I never drained more than 5 ml per day after tummy tuck. Everyone is different

    Well one of mine has been about 30 ml since tummy tuck surgery and the other one has been 100ml since surgury. I was just thinking maybe they would have started to go down a bit ! But I have been swollen today so maybe that has something to so with it ?

    How is the fluid drainage today Shalako ? Is it starting to slow down?

    So pleased to hear that, hopefully will slow enough for the drains to come out soon
