In Ling Jiezhou's eyes, Ling Ran did it steadily and quickly.
In Miao Tansheng's eyes, the fact that Ling Ran was able to perform the heavy reinforcing suture so well and perform the intradermal suture so quickly meant that he had already surpassed the standard of ordinary people.
"Are you from Yun Hua Hospital?" Doctor Miao moved a chair over and sat beside Ling Ran. He watched as Ling Ran threaded the needle.
Ling Ran smiled and did not answer.
If he had to answer everyone's questions, he would have been dead from exhaustion.
Ling Jiezhou was so happy that he looked like a mouse in a rice barn. He said to Miao Tansheng, "My son has been on the news a few times. Topics like the most handsome doctor in China, the most handsome doctor in the world, and the most skillful doctor are all mentioned in my WeChat Moments and Weibo."
"I don't look at my Moments." Miao Tansheng paused for a moment, then said, "I don't check Weibo, Toutiao, or the news."
"Why? Aren't they primitive people? "Ling Jiezhou could not understand.
Miao Tansheng said calmly, "Even if I put all my energy into studying, it wouldn't be enough. How would I have time to look at those things?"
As he spoke, Miao Tansheng deliberately looked at Ling Ran.
Everyone had a side that was fond of being a teacher, and teachers all liked children who were eager to learn.
Miao Tansheng believed that he would definitely be able to make Ling Ran remember him if he devoted all his attention to medicine.
"I see you playing with your phone every day in the clinic when you have nothing to do." Ling Jiezhou looked like he did not believe him at all. He said, "You must be using TikTok often, right? Middle-aged men love TikTok the most. I don't know why, but I see that many people in the alley are like this. They're in their forties or fifties, but they still enjoy using TikTok."
There were only a few medical staff in the clinic. Every day, when Ling Jiezhou played with his phone, he would deliberately look around. Most of the time, Miao Tansheng was also playing with his phone. After all, there were only so many patients sent by Golden Deer Health Services every day. There were quite a number of patients who came to him on their own, but there were not many who needed suturing or debridement.
Miao Tansheng's face turned red and then yellow. He immediately shook his head and said, "I always read my thesis when I turn on my phone. You heard the sound, right? It's just the music from my phone."
"Isn't that still playing with my phone?"
"Hey, how can reading a thesis be called playing?"
"When the phone lights up, I'm just playing with my phone. What's the difference between reading a public account and writing a thesis?" Ling Jiezhou had always discriminated against people like Miao Tansheng, who also used mobile phones but thought that their mobile phones were more high-end.
Miao Tansheng snorted and watched Ling Ran's operation. He did not refute Ling Jiezhou anymore.
There were also basic rules for secretly learning from others. Quarreling with his master's father was obviously not beneficial to this.
Ling Ran continued to perform the intradermal suture. He did not listen to their conversation at all.
After the heavy reinforcing suture, the pressure on the skin to rupture would be reduced. Then, a thin thread would be used to suture the wound gently. This would not affect the strength of the suture, and it could also minimize the scar caused by the needle and thread.
At the same time, Ling Ran focused all his attention on the stitching of the edge of the skin.
The possibility of his skin cracking was reduced. However, if the edges of the skin were not aligned, one could imagine how many scars would grow.
If beauty was the ultimate standard, the loss of a part of the skin would be even more troublesome.
Take the girl in front of him for example. The corner of her eye was broken, and there was a defect in the injured skin. Although the defect was not much, when one considered the scars left by the new skin after healing and the old skin, any person who loved beauty would probably not be able to tolerate it.
At this time, the intradermal reinforcing suture could come into play.
Ling Ran first cleaned up the edge of the skin that had been aligned. Then, he threw away the needle holder, stood up, stretched his body, and said, "A piece of your skin is missing. Later, I will help you stretch the skin and perform a subcutaneous heavy reinforcing suture so that it can be patched together. This way, the scar will be smaller, and you have to be more careful when you take care of it."
"Oh." The girl only needed to hear that the scar would be smaller.
Doctor Miao said in a tone that was half lecturing and half flattering, "What Doctor Ling performed on you is an extremely high-end suture technique. Don't think that you can do it everywhere. As far as I know, you won't be able to find a second doctor in Yun Hua who can suture your wound like this. "
"Really?" The girl did not quite believe it.
Doctor Miao chuckled and said, "How much money does a doctor who can perform this kind of surgery earn from plastic surgery? Anyway, you're lucky this time that you met Doctor Ling. "
"Oh." The girl only agreed and immediately said, "We agreed on the price."
"I didn't ask you to pay more." Doctor Miao pursed his lips and thought, 'Girls nowadays are getting more and more sensitive.'
Ling Ran used a thin thread to perform a subcutaneous heavy reinforcing suture on the girl. This time, the purpose was to make the skin produce mechanical expansion. Research showed that the mechanical pressure of expansion would increase the surface area of the skin under the influence of a certain stretching force. The fiber tissue would rearrange itself and extend outwards after stretching. Therefore, the skin could obtain extra skin volume, and theoretically, it could increase the surface area of the skin by 31%.
With this method, the damaged skin could be repaired, and the effect was more than two levels better than skin grafting.
Of course, if the surface area of the defect was too large, skin grafting could only be done.
Doctor Miao watched carefully and tried to understand it seriously. He also pondered in his heart.
Whether it was the heavy reinforcing suture or the intradermal reinforcing suture, they were both considered "smart" techniques.
The so-called smart techniques required the doctor to be flexible and changeable, especially when it came to the heavy reinforcing suture. The doctor needed to think about which part of the tension should be reduced and how far away from the edge of the skin was the most appropriate place to insert the needle.
Of course, the most important thing was always practice.
Only through continuous practice could a doctor accumulate experience. If the human brain was compared to a computer, experience could be seen as data.
The human brain could not directly process data. It needed to make an analogy with previous cases.
Doctor Miao guessed that Ling Ran needed at least tens of thousands of experience cases to be able to perform such a heavy reinforcing suture and intradermal reinforcing suture, and some of them would inevitably fail.
Doctor Miao looked around. It was as if he could see the walls of Lower Groove Clinic covered in tears of people who had their faces ruined …
"Alright, don't let the wound come into contact with water when you go back. Don't touch it. You must remove the thread on time. You can do it earlier …" Ling Ran finished the suture and asked Juan Zi to bandage the patient while he dictated the precautions.
He had memorized these things when he performed debridement and suturing, but he still explained them to the patient.
"Doctor, why don't you add me on WeChat? If I have any questions, it'll be easier for me to ask you." When the patient realized that she was about to leave, she suddenly felt a little reluctant.
"I don't add ordinary patients on WeChat." Ling Ran flatly refused.
The girl pouted unhappily. "Do ordinary patients have to be discriminated against?"
"Yes, ordinary patients don't need to communicate on WeChat." Ling Ran paused for a moment and said, "If the patient requests it, I will add patients with more than three severed fingers on WeChat."
The girl looked at her fair and tender fingers, and she suddenly did not want to add Ling Ran on WeChat anymore.
"Doctor Ling, I'll call Golden Deer Health Services and ask them to send more patients over." Miao Tansheng did not want to give up the chance to secretly learn from Ling Ran, so he decided to use the small amount of resources he had accumulated previously.
