  Granulation (no stitches)

The skin tissue is allowed to heal itself without stitches thus requiring no further surgery.  The wound will be moist and bumpy at first and have a yellow/pink or yellow/red base.  The new skin will grow toward the center and become light pink and smooth.  This type of healing may take several weeks (4-6 weeks on average).  The final scar is round to oval and smaller than the original surgery site.
