Selection guidance
Choosing sutures for dermatological procedures
Dermatological closure can involve delicate, highly visible or tension-bearing areas. The appropriate suture should be selected according to the tissue, wound location, required support and intended closure technique.
Precision Dermal supplies a focused range of absorbable and non-absorbable options for professional skin closure, allowing clinicians to select materials and needle configurations suited to their individual procedural requirements.
Suture Size
Select a diameter appropriate for the tissue, wound tension and required closure strength.
Needle Profile
Needle curvature, point type and length should suit the tissue and access available.
Closure Technique
Match the product to the intended interrupted, continuous, subcuticular or layered technique.
Clinical applications

Frequently asked questions
Dermatology suture guidance
Which sutures are commonly used for dermatological closure?
Both absorbable and non-absorbable sutures may be used depending
on the wound location, tissue depth, tension, closure technique
and planned aftercare. The final selection should be made by the
treating clinician.
What is the difference between absorbable and non-absorbable dermatology sutures?
Absorbable sutures are designed to lose tensile strength and be
absorbed over time, while non-absorbable sutures generally remain
in place until removed or may be used where longer-term support is
required.
Are monofilament sutures suitable for skin closure?
Monofilament sutures are frequently selected for skin closure
because of their smooth passage through tissue and relatively low
surface drag. Suitability depends on the procedure and clinician’s
preferred technique.
How should the correct suture size be selected?
Suture size should be selected according to tissue type, wound
tension, anatomical location and the strength required. Clinicians
should use their professional judgement and follow applicable
clinical guidance.
Can these sutures be used for training?
Product suitability varies. Precision Dermal also supplies
dedicated practice sutures, silicone pads and training kits for
hands-on skills development outside clinical use.
