Posted: 07-07-05 14:02pm

I was wondering if anyone can tell me how long it takes for dissolvable stitches to dissolve, I have 3 small cuts from a laparascopic surgery and have never been stitched before so i'm unsure has to how long they should last, any info would be very welcome

Approxamately 7 - 10 days. Area of wound would show obvious signs of healing aswell. Goodluck :)

Posted: 07-23-05 03:42am

I just had my second lap on july 15th...So it has been a week and I am healing well...I will say to be careful even for a couple weeks after they appear healed as my first lap I thought I was healed and ended up busting one incision open. Good luck!
