CONTACT NOW Answer: It looks as though your sutures are "spitting". It looks like your disolvable sutures are working their way out before they are absorbed by your body. This often leads to a worsened scar in that region which occasionally needs a small scar revision after everything is healed. I would see your plastic surgeon. Most likely, local wound care will be all that is needed for now as you heal. Sometimes these problems do resolve themselves with no future intervention necessary. Have patience and see how your body heals.

Answer: Issues with Stitches Strong reactions to the dissolvable sutures can occur. This produces a less aesthetic scar. Local care in the way of removing any protruding/surfacing stitches and wound care with dressings is what can be done at this point. Earl Stephenson, Jr, MD, DDS, FACS

Answer: Concerns over scarring You should see your surgeon about this. To me, you photo suggests poor scarring. But only an exam will tell if you have suture issues or scarring issues.
