In vaginoplasty, dissolvable sutures are commonly used, which means you will not need to have them removed. These sutures are designed to naturally dissolve on their own over time. However, it is important to schedule a follow-up appointment with your surgeon to monitor your healing progress and ensure everything is going well. Typically, the first follow-up appointment is scheduled around 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. During this visit, your surgeon will evaluate your healing, discuss any concerns you may have, and provide further guidance for your recovery.
Will I have dissolvable sutures, or will I need to have them removed? If so, when should I schedule a follow-up appointment?
