Soluble stitches are, I thought, mainly for internal suturing for obvious reasons. External stitching is normally non-soluble, butterflies or sticking plaster which need to be removed 10-14 days after the op. Here's some NHS dope: "Removal of stitches (sutures) Some stitches that are used are dissolving sutures.
These do not require removing. If they are buried under the skin, they do not require any action. Some soluble stitches are on the surface of the wound.
After a week they can be washed and moisturised which will help them dislodge. If you had stitches that do not dissolve in your wound then an appointment will be given to you to attend either the Outpatients ‘Dressing Clinic’ or you will be asked to return to your GP or practice nurse for the stitches to be removed. Stitches in the head and neck area are normally removed after 5-7 days.
On the scalp they may be removed 2-3 weeks later. Stitches in other areas of the body may remain in place for 2-3 weeks. More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
