Double eyelid surgery --feels like stitch is still present. Are stitches used internally, and do they remain indefinitely?

I'm 2 months post full incisional double eyelid surgery. On my right eye, when I gently massage along the incision line, more near towards the outer edge, I feel bump. When I press on this bump, there is a sudden pang of light stabbing sensation. Underneath the pad of my finger, it almost feels like a tiny wire beneath a layer of skin. Are stitches used internally in double eyelid surgery, and do they remain indefinitely? I thought they were only used on top to close the wound. Thank you..
