Regarding surgical scar, is it better to do cosmetic suture directly during operation or scar repair after operation?
In fact, "cosmetic suture" refers to a series of special suture techniques in the process of wound suture, including the selection of suture materials, the position and level of needle entry, the route of thread in tissue, the position and level of needle exit, the tightness of knot, needle distance and edge, etc. The ultimate goal of these complicated operations is to minimize skin tension.

Advantages of cosmetic stitching:

1. Controlling wound tension is the key to reduce scar. The improved suture technique can achieve tension-free suture of the wound and avoid the appearance of "centipede scar"

2. According to the cosmetic subunit, the surgical incision is designed, and at the same time, with the help of microscopic technology, a good epidermis is realized.

3. The operation is fine and minimally invasive, which reduces tissue re-injury.

4. Fine suture tissue has little reaction; Early suture removal can minimize stitches and needle scars.
