How many layers of sutures does he use to repair of the tubes? What type of sutures does he use?
Each layer of tube (3 layers) is stitched using a non-dissolvable micro-suture. The sutures used to close the abdominal fatty layers just below the surface incision are dissolvable stitches, and the stitching method used to close your external incision is a cosmetic surgery technique which will minimize scarring and make the incision barely visible within a few months to a year.
