When an individual suffers from an accident, injury, or any other trauma. Their body and wounds require time for proper healing. Each wound requires its own specific time to heal. Doctors use thin threads to close a deep wound or bind the skin together. These thin threads are made up of different materials. The medical term for these threads is sutures or stitches. Patients are often unable to properly visit a hospital to get their wounds checked, or to get their stitches removed. Our clinic offers Sutures Removal at Home in Dubai, Abu Dhabi & Sharjah for the well-being of patients within the comfort of their homes.
Removing Your Sutures at Your Home:
When a person suffers from a certain wound or injury the area requires proper stitches to bind the skin together. These surgical stitches are often applied for certain days until the area completely heals. Their purpose is to sew the skin, and the tissues together until the area properly heals. These threads are either of silk, or polypropylene. The doctor selects the type of suture, based on the condition of the patient.
Types Of Sutures:
There are two types of sutures in the medical field. These are:
Absorbable:
These stitches contain absorbable material, and they do not need any type of removal method. They easily absorb into the skin after some days.
Non-Absorbable:
The non-absorbable threads have to be removed after certain days. They are not broken down by the body but have to be properly cut by a professional expert.
