Sponsored by Johnson & Johnson MedTech, this peer-to-peer webinar examines clinical considerations surrounding synthetic and natural sutures, with an emphasis on the use of synthetic absorbable sutures in plastic surgery. Faculty will share practical perspectives on suture selection, standardization of surgical practices, and strategies for supporting tissue healing and optimizing patient outcomes. The discussion provides participants with clinically relevant insights that can inform procedural decision-making and promote consistency, safety, and quality across surgical settings.
