 Excisional suture is a low-invasive method for the reconstruction of scalp defects. Postoperative cicatrical alopecia and a widening scar are serious cosmetic problems, and minimizing the skin tension for a long period is essential to address them. To achieve relaxation of the suture tension in the galea aponeurotica, at our hospital we perform a relaxation incision that is parallel to the flap margin. Of the 56 patients for whom we used scalp excisional sutures in 2022, the skin tension could not be relieved with a conventional parallel incision in six patients. We used a staircase incision instead of the conventional method in these six patients, and in all of their cases the relaxation sutures were sufficient and resulted in no postoperative complication or serious cosmetic issue over a 6-month follow-up period. It is our belief that a staircase incision of the galea aponeurotica is suitable for excisional-suture large scalp defects.
