Hi, It depends on what type of stitches your surgeon has used. Most surgeons use disolvable threads, I had mine which was a normal thread hence it dissolved on its own. So nothing to worry... if you still see stitches after two weeks its best to have em removed by the same surgeon. Normally your surgeon will recommend removal during one of your post surgical visits.

Good Luck..!

PS Dont forget to visit your surgeon once in three days for dressing. it pays..
