Is it common for skin glue to be used to close incisions after breast reduction?

Asked By:DSNY22 in Avon Park, Florida

I had breast reduction surgery months ago where my vertical incision opened/split. Is it common for a surgeon to use only skin glue to close this incision? There were not exterior sutures, only glue and steri-strips. Thank you.
