Repair of Lacerations

(Simple and Complex)


Laceration repair, encompassing both simple and complex cases, is a crucial medical procedure that addresses cuts or wounds in the skin. Its primary objective is to halt bleeding, prevent infection, and facilitate proper healing. During laceration repair, a healthcare provider meticulously cleans the wound, removes foreign debris, and employs various closure techniques such as stitches, staples, or adhesive strips to bring the wound edges together. These lacerations can range from straightforward, straight-line cuts to more intricate, jagged wounds that may involve deeper tissues or structures. If you have a laceration requiring attention, consulting with a healthcare provider is essential for a thorough evaluation and treatment. Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic specializes in laceration repair, offering expert care for patients with both simple and complex wounds, ensuring meticulous closure and necessary follow-up care for optimal healing.
