Non absorbable suture material is a type of surgical thread that is not absorbed by the body after it is used. This means that it will continue to remain in the body for a period of time, usually several weeks or months. This can be advantageous in some situations, such as when patients need to have stitches removed from their body at a later date.
The most common type of non-absorbable suture is nylon, which is strong and flexible enough to be used with most types of soft tissue. Nylon can be dyed different colors so that it blends in with surrounding skin when it’s being used for cosmetic purposes rather than for medical ones; however, this does not affect the quality of the product itself.
