The patients from the Department of Orthopaedics Center for Joint Replacement will be asked to participate in the study. These patients will be randomized to one of three wound closure products, Sylke adhesive dressing, Exofin skin glue, or Suture Strip Plus. Participants will be asked to take a photograph of the incision 4 days after surgery to submit via MyChart for review by the WVU Department of Dermatology Team. All patients will be evaluated at their regular 2-week, 6-week, and 3-month post-operative visits where clinical photographs will be submitted for independent review by the WVU Department of Dermatology Team to assess outcomes.
