Timeframe Of Intraoral Chin Implant Wound Healing?

Philipp in Australia
Hello experts, I had chin augmentation via intraoral approach 6 days ago. Swelling is completely gone or rather I do not notice it. The implant position itself is perfect, very well placed. In short, I sincerely love the outcome. However, I did notice that the gaps between the sutures are still not closed. It looks like they barely close. There is no bleeding though. So, how long does it usually take for the gaps to completely heal? What can be done to aid it?
