Then, what if the child's face is broken and he is afraid of leaving a scar?
Don't worry, let's learn about "cosmetic suture" first. Compared with ordinary surgical suture, the scar is much smaller.
Cosmetic suture-fine needle and thread, fine suture
When it comes to cosmetic suture, we usually think of very fine cosmetic suture. In fact, from a professional point of view, cosmetic suture is plastic suture, not only using small needles and thin lines, but also wound treatment and cosmetic suture technology. Strict wound debridement, tissue pruning and accurate alignment of skin tissue all ensure the effect of cosmetic suture, and only doctors who have been trained in plastic surgery for a long time can meet the requirements of cosmetic suture.
So, what are the advantages of cosmetic suture compared with ordinary suture?
Ordinary suture is mostly full-thickness suture, that is, only one layer is sutured, and it cannot be completely reduced. The suture is thick, besides the scar left by the wound, the suture and sewing needle will also leave traces, and the scar will be widened because of tension in the later stage.
Cosmetic suture is to sew the wound or incision layer by layer by using small needle and thin thread and plastic suture technology. According to the depth of the wound or incision, at least 2 or more layers should be sutured to fully reduce the tension of the wound or incision and reduce scars and suture marks.
The wound of cosmetic suture is slightly raised in the early stage, and gradually flattened under the action of skin tension in the later stage, further reducing the scar.
