Why can I do about my suture abscess hole (Photos)

in surgery like a breast lift we use many absorbable sutures.  These sutures dissolve by being "eaten" by your body under the skin.  The process of "eating" is inflammation.  Unfortunately, in some circumstances the inflammation causes the sutures to be forced out through the skin.  In this case, sometimes the plastic surgeon needs to remove the sutures in order to speed along the healing.  There is nothing you can do to stop the process, but make sure you see your plastic surgeon.

I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with.   Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

I have seen a number of these in my career, and most have healed without serious consequences, but Without an exam, it will not be possible to fully evaluate you and give you recommendations. You are doing the right thing staying in close touch with your doctor's team.  Keep it up.
