Plastic Surgery Suturing Vs Suturing
What we use
and why:
FINE SUTURES:
To prevent train track scars
MULTILAYERED
CLOSURE: To prevent stretching of
scar as it takes the tension off the skin sutures
EARLY
REMOVAL: To prevent
suture marks to become permanent.
Normal duration in which we take off the stitches is 5-7 days.
ZERO TENSION
CLOSURE: Leads to early healing
"As they say, Stress is Bad"
AFTER CARE: Massage,
avoiding sun exposure, Regular Follow up
ORIENTATION
OF SCARS IN SKIN LINES: To camouflage
in plain sight
QUALITY OF SCAR: All this leads to a better quality scar which is nay visible J
