Abstract in brief

  • The study aimed to compare the cosmetic outcomes of pediatric lacerations treated with three different methods: absorbable sutures, Dermabond, or Steri-Strips, through guardian feedback three months post-repair.
  • A total of 55 children were enrolled, with 30 completing follow-up; data showed no significant differences in scar appearance, pain perception, or satisfaction among the treatment methods.
  • Ultimately, the findings indicated no marked preference or outcomes regarding scar quality or satisfaction for any of the repair techniques used for simple lacerations.
