It is restorable, 4 weeks or longer. If non-resorbable must be removed by the surgeon using a microscope.
Within 5 days if it’s a packing that dissolves.
Typically the GelFoam dissolved in 4-6 weeks, but the scar tissue matures over an entire year.
That depends on what type of packing is used. Can be anywhere from several days to a week or so
