Running subcuticular

This is a more advanced technique. It has the advantage of few skin punctures.

In certain situations, when performed well, it is the least likely to cause scarring.

Because the suture material is completely buried, it cannot be removed therefore you must use a suture material that is reabsorbed.

Here is an excellent video from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57pu6Ql9U7g that shows interrupted sutures and also the subcuticular suture. Below, we have linked to the point where the detailed description of the subcuticular suture starts.
