Question

After what length of time or skin sutures typically removed

Answer 1

In all honesty, it depends on the severity of the inital wound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sutures should generally stay in place longer the more tension there is across a wound. As a general rule, sutures should be removed in 5-7 days from the face, 7 days from the neck, 10 days from the scalp, 10-14 days from the trunk and upper extremities, and 14-21 days from the lower extremities.
