one of the commonest problems surgeons ,even aesthetic plastic surgeons come across.
Z plasty, using nylon as subcuticular technique with the aid of steri strip and Dermabond
subcutaneous stiches using absorbable material and avoiding wound infection
to prevent scar stretching ,one has to use a good figure of eight closure of the sc tissues
after the sc is closed well, one has a choice between accurate subcuticular absorbable sutures, tissue glue and steristrips
the scar will be more acceoptable cosmetically
it is an art to design the proper closure of subcuticular areas, using exact same mirror image closure designed by us years earlier
