Dissolving Stitches

I have been wondering what is going on with these stitches- I've had pieces of white thread sticking out of my sides for a month and a half now. I just checked this morning and realized the fully internal ones have gone down (there were small bumps under the skin) and most of what was external is now gone. YAY!! Almost there, waiting for the wounds to be fully healed to see what the final result will be- so far it looks like it will be minimal.
