Wound repair of the pretibial and forearm regions presents a challenge during dermatologic surgery as these areas are under significant tension and exhibit increased skin fragility. Various methodologies have been proposed for the closure and repair of such wounds, however, the use of the bilayered suture technique may be simpler and more effective than other techniques such as the pinch stitch, pully stitch, slip-knot stitch, pulley set-back dermal suture, horizontal mattress suture, pully stitch, and tandem pulley stitch. Our objective was to describe a novel method for the repair of pretibial and forearm wounds following Mohs micrographic surgery utilizing bilayered closure followed by tissue adhesive application.  J Drugs Dermatol. 2024;23(5):380.     doi:10.36849/JDD.7139 &nbsp.
