Your prob best just applying some steri strips to bring the edges together. After 4 weeks the wound should be healed underneath so prob just superficial layers of skin not quite together. However if you have any signs of infection (increased pain at site, redness, heat, puss etc) then you should get it checked out by your practice nurse. But yes they can re-glue if need be. Hope you are well otherwise x

You shouldn't need anything 4 weeks post op. my glue and stitches were out just under 2 weeks post op and are healing nicely. Keep the wounds clean and if there is any sign of infection then go and see your gp.
