Will any two pieces of cut flesh grow together?

This is for the sake of a fiction story, NOT actually doing it, but I like my fiction to be realistic. For instance, if the skin were to be cut away from the lips, and the lips sewn together and left to heal, would they heal together? I know this is how vaginal infibulation works, but was unsure if it’s universal to the human body. I was sort of surprised that no one had attempted, say, connecting a few fingers or something, so maybe this doesn’t really work this way?
Assuming the tissue being closed has sufficient blood flow and there is no pressure that would cause separation most areas would heal together under “ideal” circumstances.

I dont think that connecting fingers would work. I’m not sure about anyone else but my knuckles dont line up so I think they would bend at slightly diffrent places
