Dissolvable stitch poking out of crease (Photo)

it is not uncommon for dissolvable sutures to occasionally become exposed before they are completely dissolved.   This is nothing to be concerned about. Generally speaking, that suture should be removed.   If it is not removed, it can continue to cause irritation of the surrounding skin. It is possible that it will eventually resolve on its own, however I would recommend removal.    I do not use absorbable sutures on the upper eyelid incision when I do an upper blepharoplasty.  I would recommend calling your surgeon's office for advice.  One of the disadvantages of choosing a surgeon in a different city is that it is difficult  for you to follow up for evaluation if there are any complications. This is something that all patients should consider when they choose their surgeon.  Best wishes to you!

I recommend seeing your surgeon for this.  If it is suture, it should be removed.  These can become more irritated.  If you can't see your surgeon, see a local oculoplastic surgeon for care.

Thanks for the photo. I think that you are absolutely correct this is indeed an extruding suture. Sometimes dissolving sutures are used internally and it looks like your surgeon has used a particular kind of suture called Vicryl which is notorious for this kind of problem. The suture should dissolve, but how long this will take will depend on the thickness of suture used which will range from days to months. If it is really bothering you, I would find a local oculoplastic surgeon who can remove this very easily.
