I have had my lift-lip and whilst i am happy with my healing . I am 4 weeks post- op, there was some stitches left in the area. Some were removed by surgeon but not all so I manually had to cut them out. there is one stitch that it is too short to get out but its just prickly when I touch it with my finger. My question is will it dissolve or will I have to get it out somehow. ( as it is its difficult). My surgeon is in another country so I cannot go back to him.
