This is a question that I am often asked in the clinic; whenever it comes to wound closure, I am always asked: I don’t want to come to remove the stitches, just give me glue! Or: I am not afraid to spend money, you can sew more layers of imported sutures without removing them! So, is it really up to your mood how you want your wound to be treated? If the doctor does not handle the sutures according to your wound condition, he must not be a real doctor, at least I think so. For wounds where tissue glue is applicable, both glue and cosmetic sutures are available. The advantages of topical tissue glue are ease of use, fast wound closure, and also avoiding trauma and compression of the tissue caused by sutures and stitches, as well as reducing the tissue reaction caused by sutures and eliminating suture scarring. In addition, the glue itself has a certain antibacterial effect, reducing the incidence of wound infection. Patients also do not need to remove stitches and can bathe early on, providing a better experience for patients. However, the disadvantages are that there are certain indications and the glue may affect the early exudate flow from the wound, and the price is relatively high. Sutures, on the other hand, are suitable for all wounds and are economically priced. Both may be slightly better than sutures in terms of scar formation as glue avoids suture scarring, which is more pronounced especially in the early stages. The most important thing is to determine how to treat the wound according to your surgery and the best result you want to get after the surgery, listen to the right professional.
