Will a suture absess go away on its own?

Healing after plastic surgery is a process and the earlier parts are the most challenging. Best is to discuss specifically with the operating surgeon so that he /she can take a look. Our patient i Book has a lot of basic information as well.

Thank you for your question.  If you have what you think is a suture abscess, this should be evaluated by your surgeon.  The presence of the suture will often prevent any wounds from completely healing.  Often we will have to remove the suture to allow the skin to heal.  Best to have your surgeon evaluate to determine if something needs to be done.  

If it is really a suture abscess, the stitch will eventually work it's way out. However, I think it's always good idea to have something like this looked at by your surgeon. Better to err on the side of caution.
