Based on how patients react, I would say stitch removal for blepharoplasty is very tolerable (1/10) and rhinoplasty is sometimes just a little uncomfortable (2/10). Hope this helps.
Thank you for your question. The rhinoplasty sutures are inside the nose and dissolve on their own. If the surgeon did an open rhinoplasty there are small sutures near the base of the columella (where the nose meets the middle of the lip) that need to be removed. Similarly the small sutures of the eyelids need to be removed as well. Removing sutures is quick and usually pain-free or most, mildly uncomfortable. It's normal to be apprehensive, but patients handle suture removal very well. Best wishes to you.
