Smile sutures removed!

Dermatologist removed subcutaneous sutures. feel much better. little to no blood. minimal pain. gave me a local (lydocaine?) and pulled 3 times: got most of them out.
Still 2 opinions RE wound care: Zeegers says use BUTTERFLY bandages to close the wound. American DRs say keep it open, let it heal from the bottom up--less risk for infection.
