It typically takes at minimum one week for the suture to dissolve, i.e. be resorbed by the body. If the suture knot was tied improperly
One week is just a minimum. Sometimes I see the suture there for two weeks even, but rarely.
.if they use Vicryl, which is intended to last longer. This will typically see for two weeks, minimum.
a life time. trust me
