How long do surgical staples usually stay in following a mommy makeover?

June 4, 2017
Asked By:HelpNana in California, CA

I had a mommy makeover with full tummy tuck, breast lift and implants on may 26th. The drain tubes were removed on may 30th. I have an appointment with the Ps to remove the staples. I am worried because skin is growing over the staples and I am still in pain. I would like to know the average amount of time the staples stay in.
