Do you have to wear a drain after liposuction?

I had a tummy tuck about 5 months ago and had to wear a drain for about a month after. I'm having lipo in a few months and I'm wondering if I'll have to wear a drain after that too. Thanks!

1. My daughter did. She had a tummy tuck and liposuction. She did okay.
2. The cuts where the doctor inserted the canula may be leaky or drain fluids for several days. In some cases, the doctor may insert a drainage tube to drain fluid away from the wound.
