What is a subcuticular suture?
A subcuticular suture is a type of suturing technique used to close the skin edges of a wound or incision just beneath the epidermis. It involves placing the suture in the subcuticular layer, which helps to minimize scarring and promotes better cosmetic results. This technique is often used in surgical procedures where a neat, clean closure is desired, such as in plastic or cosmetic surgery. The sutures are typically absorbable and may not require removal, as they dissolve over time.

Do Prolene stitches leave a bad scar on face?
No. How much of a scar is left is dependant on the cut, the size and type of suture, and type of stitch. If a small size suture is used for a continuous stitch, then generally the injury heals very well. It's the interrupted stitch that leaves the "railroad" scar. If you ever have a large cut on your face, always ask for a plastic surgeon. This assures that the scar will be as minimal as possible.
