Is it normal to have to wait 6 weeks for stitches to be removed around my areola?

I am 17 days post op from a breast reduction. I had my 1 week follow up with my provider for about 5 mins. My next appointment is 4 weeks from now. I still have the clear surgical tape on my scars and areola as well. I'm worried leaving them in so long will create scars that will be harder to heal. Also noticing a slight dog tag on my inner breast at the end of my anchor scar. Is it too soon to tell whether I will need a revision? What does that entail? Or will it heal on its own? Thank you.
