Do Inner Anchoring Stitches Take Longer to Heal Than Dissolving Outer Stitches?

Asked By:Cher in Seattle in Walla Walla, WA

I have a couple of questions. Do the inner anchoring stitches take longer to heal than the dissolving outer ones? Why do incisions blow apart/separate on TL and what are the usual methods of healing and how long can that take? Thanks.
