Summary

Millions of women worldwide undergo perineal suturing after childbirth and the type of repair may have an impact on pain and healing. The skin as a barrier between the internal structures and the external environment is exceptionally susceptible to injury, either through accidental injury or planned surgical incision. Today, as surgery increases in complexity, and the heightened public awareness of scar cosmesis and skin healing need to be optimized to ensure the overall success of the surgical procedure
