I am 4 weeks post-op from a mommy makeover. my doc used dissolvable staples under the skin but now they are painful and they are creating holes and popping out of my incision. He has removed 3 full ones and many other small partial ones. Is there a chance they will still dissolve or will my doctor have to remove them? is there anything i can do to help them dissolve. Help! Also the holes in the photos were infected so i have been using iodine and took a round of antibiotics as well.
