my wife had deep facial lacerations from an auto accident.?

Filed under: lacerations 

2 weeks ago she had the black exterior sutures removed. now there are a few short white thread like things poking out. are these sutures also?

If she had deep facial lacerations chances are they sewed the muscular layer and then sewed the epidermal layer chances are what you are seeing are dissolvable sutures from the muscular layer. Give them time to break down. However, if you are concerned always check with your doctor.

  4. I too met with an auto accident two years ago and sustained deep lacerations all over my face…The docs said no matter how well you treat it,, a scar is always a scar. But on the brighter side i have been using CONTRACTUBEX for the past two years and it prevented Keloids and blended my scar to an extent where its not quite obvious now…But its need lots of patience… good luck
