Dr. Aceves stitches staples

Ok I am reading about some who get staples removed, stitches removed. What does Dr. Aceves do?

I want to make sure if I need to see my PCP that I have an appointment all set up.

VST has been so helpful to me.

It was so easy with Dr Aceves. No stitches, no staples. I came home with tape on my little incisions, with instructions to leave it on until it fell off. It took about 10 days to fall off.

Another great "user friendly" aspect of his program.

Dr. Aceves uses dissolvable stitches, like Cajun said they put tape over

the stitches and tell you not to take it off for any reason for ten days. When

I took the tape off the stitches were gone.

Anything else just let us know. I just had my surgery with Dr. Aceves on

Jan 25th.
