What are my chances of sutures re-opening? (Photo)

February 26, 2014
Asked By:Belle8

Almost two weeks after my wedge method labiaplasty, the left side split open. I got it re-stitched and two days later it came apart again even being as immobile as possible. Went back to doc and got it restitched for third time. It looks different this time and definitely hurts way more than the other two times. I would like to know what my chances of re opening are and would also like to know if from the pic it looks like this could heal nicely? Like to stay positive but am pretty frustrated.
