A member asked:
How long does it take for self dissolving stitches to dissolve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
About a week: Self dissolving sutures are designed to melt away as the healing process takes over the wound closure. Unless some added trauma to the wound is experienced healing should be uneventful with good oral care and taking your meds.
