Should the stitches look like this?

From Brian:-
I am really angry about the way my stitches look post vasectomy. Is it normal for them to look like this? Although it is somewhere that can’t be seen, it still bothers me. Is this something that could have been prevented? The photo was taken 6 days post op.

Vasectomy incisions 6 days

The attached photograph appears to be that of a relatively normal healing process for a vasectomy procedure. The size of the incision is a little generous, but otherwise looks normal for 6 days after surgery. The nice thing about operating on the scrotum is that it is a very forgiving area of skin and most scars will not be apparent after a period of time.
