A laceration is a superficial injury to the skin and sometimes the underlying subcutaneous tissues in various body areas, often caused by everyday accidents at home, outdoors, or in the workplace. Laceration repair by a plastic surgeon ensures the best possible wound closure, placement of the scar in inconspicuous areas where feasible, and meticulous postoperative scar care to minimize the possibility of a disfiguring scar and achieve the best aesthetic outcome.
For large lacerations accompanied by skin deficits, plastic surgery can utilize a variety of surgical flaps, cleverly designed from adjacent skin, to achieve closure of the injured area.
Most often, only local anesthesia is required, and the patient returns home immediately after the procedure.
