Membrane curvature in quasi-spherical vesicles makes long-wavelength undulations sensitive to viscosity and speeds up lipid density fluctuation relaxation, eliminating the stretched-exponential regime predicted for planar membranes.
Fluid motion at the lenghtscales of a micron-sized vesicle and smaller is 4 in the overdamped regime, where inertia effects are negligible

Equilibrium fluctuations of a quasi-spherical vesicle: role of the membrane dissipation
Membrane curvature in quasi-spherical vesicles makes long-wavelength undulations sensitive to viscosity and speeds up lipid density fluctuation relaxation, eliminating the stretched-exponential regime predicted for planar membranes.
