Summary
This trial is testing a special medical glue called Dermabond on patients who have had skin surgeries on their head and neck. The glue is applied on top of the wound to help seal it and possibly improve how the scar looks. Researchers want to see if using this glue makes wound care easier and if patients prefer it over traditional stitches. Dermabond is known for its strong bonding, water-resistant properties, and good cosmetic outcomes.
