It is planned to measure the amount of knot looseness in millimeters on the 7th day when the sutures will be removed. On the 7th day, it is planned to evaluate the suture removal pain for the patient and the ease of suture removal for the operator with the VAS scale. Data collected from these assessments will be statistically compared for simple and continuous sutures.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Suturing Time 1 minutes after ending suture The time between start and end of suture
Early Wound Healing Score-1 Day 1 Scoring wound healing according to Early Wound Healing Score(1 to 10; 1 is the best/10 is the worst)
Pain at Suture Removal Day 7 VAS scoring for pain at suture removal. The range of Scala is 0-10. A lower score means better results.
Suture Removal Difficulty Day 7 VAS scoring for suture removal difficulty. The range of Scala is 0-10. A lower score means better results.
Early Wound Healing Score-7 Day 7 Scoring wound healing according to Early Wound Healing Score(1 to 10; 1 is the best/10 is the worst)
Early Wound Healing Score-3 Day 3 Scoring wound healing according to Early Wound Healing Score(1 to 10; 1 is the best/10 is the worst)
