Is 7 Days Too Early to Remove Stitches for Upper Blepharoplasty?

Generally, any sutures that need to be removed are done so in about a week or less after surgery. Please follow your surgeon's post-surgery care instructions to reduce the rate of scarring.

Our office usually removes the sutures around day 7.  Each patient and surgeon is different. The suture material, technique, and tension on the individual wound may be very different.  He/she was there and will know best when to take them out.  Let him/her know your concerns.
