How long do dissolvable stitches from labiaplasty take to dissolve?

Asked By:lisa beard in Tampa, FL

I had a wedge labia plasty 5 1/2 weeks ago and all seems to be healing well except for one area of irritation at the base of one of the end suture line where I can feel 2 little sharp points which I'm guessing are stitches. I believe the doctor used all dissolvable in stitches and I'm wondering how much longer before these should dissolve.
