Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected the total closure the surgical wound within 15 days for both groups. Latex membrane will be considered superior to the control treatment if the lesion closes 20% higher than the control treatment in the periods of 3 or 7 days. This parameters will be evaluate by clinical and photographic analysis. These analysis will be perform after 3, 7, 15, and 30 days of the surgery.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The treatment with the latex membrane will be considered superior to the control if there is reduction of the pain sensation during the healing phase. This parameter will be evaluate by the use of a VAS scale. This analysis will be perform after 3, 7, 15, and 30 days of the surgery.
