A post-surgery seroma can happen after procedures like mastectomy, breast reconstruction, body contouring, or other surgeries where fluid builds up under the skin. While seromas are common, they should never be ignored — especially if you notice swelling, pressure, discomfort, or fluid collection near your incision site.

In this video, Dr. Li explains what a seroma is, why it happens after surgery, and how it’s typically treated to help support proper healing and recovery. Early evaluation can help prevent complications and improve comfort during the recovery process.

If you’re experiencing post-op swelling or have concerns after surgery, always speak with your surgeon. 👩‍⚕️

Why start with a small incision? Because precision matters. 👌🩺
In surgery, every millimeter counts. Dr. Li carefully begins with the smallest incision possible and only extends when necessary to safely complete the procedure. This approach helps minimize unnecessary tissue trauma, improve healing, and optimize aesthetic outcomes.
You’ll also notice how meticulous surgical planning and technique guide every step in the operating room — from exposure to drain placement and closure. These details can make a major difference in recovery and final results.

Aesthetic flat closure isn’t “giving up” — it’s choosing a result that aligns with your body and your goals. 💬✨
The key to avoiding disappointment after mastectomy? Clear expectations, surgical expertise, and intentional planning from day one.
Not all flat closures are the same. Contouring, excess skin removal, and chest wall symmetry matter more than most patients realize. The difference between “just flat” and aesthetic flat closure can completely change how you feel in your body post-surgery.
If you’re considering going flat, advocate for yourself, ask detailed questions, and make sure your surgeon understands your vision. The right approach leads to confidence—not regret.

Not all “flat closures” are truly flat — and that’s where revision surgery can make all the difference.
Excess skin, uneven contours, and leftover tissue (often called “dog ears”) can leave patients feeling frustrated after mastectomy. But with a carefully planned aesthetic flat closure revision, we can restore a smoother, more symmetrical chest wall that aligns with the patient’s original goals.
This isn’t just a touch-up — it’s about correcting what should have been done intentionally the first time. Thoughtful excision, contouring, and scar refinement can dramatically improve both appearance and comfort.
Choosing to go flat is a powerful, personal decision. You deserve results that reflect that choice with precision and respect.
If your outcome doesn’t feel right, know that revision is an option.

Aesthetic flat closure isn’t about “doing nothing” — it’s about doing it RIGHT.
For patients choosing to go flat after mastectomy, precision matters. A smooth contour, proper tension, and thoughtful scar placement can make the difference between feeling uncomfortable… and feeling confident in your body again.
Too often, flat closure is treated as an afterthought — but it deserves the same level of surgical planning and artistry as any reconstruction. The goal is a clean, symmetrical, and intentional result that truly supports the patient’s choice.
Flat is a valid, empowering option. And when done well, it can look just as refined as any reconstruction.
If you’re considering going flat, make sure your surgeon understands the difference between “flat” and aesthetic flat closure.
