I have seen pictures of patients with even stitching with long incision Vs uneven stitching with short incision, ripping and some bunching up at the seams. What do you recommend ? Which one heals faster ?

Answer: Stitching uneven? There is no such a thing as stitching uneven? You may be referring to pleats that are present at the ends of an incision? This is created by excising an ellipse; it is tighter and thus flatter in the middle and more redundant at the ends thus creating pleats; these pleats will go away over a three to six month period.
