Dissolvable staples not dissolving - is there any way to help?

cheyenne37
I had breast reduction july 2022 using dissolvable staples. I had a lot of hypertrophic scarring and spitting staples and still feel the staples and see some where I had cortisone shot and the skin thinned. Is there any way to help them dissolve they’re still pretty intact.
