I had two moles excised from my face 13 days ago. One was on my cheek the other next to my nose. The plastic surgeon scheduled suture removal for 10 days after the procedure, which I felt was a bit long. I keep reading that sutures should be taken out in 3-7 days max from the face. On my cheek now that the sutures are out I can see some cross-hatches really clearly. Are they permanent? Or is my scar healing normally? The mole was a bit smaller than a pencil eraser and slightly raised.
