Running Subcuticular Suturing

🪡 Suture Practice: Simple Subcuticular Suture • The simple subcuticular suture is one of the most common and versatile sutures used in all types of surgery and cosmetics. This suture allows for skin closures that are secure and don’t require follow up for removal. Usually done with dissolvable suture, simple subcuticular sutures are invisible from the surface and hold the wound closed until they are resorbed. #fyp #surgery #medicalstudent | Noah Sirkin
