Usage/Application

Ideal for minor cuts, small incisions, post-suture removal support, surgical wound support, first aid kits, clinics, hospitals, long-term care facilities, assisted living, home care, and caregiver-supported wound care where adhesive skin closures have been recommended. Apply the skin-closure strips across a clean, dry, closed wound to help hold the edges together and reduce tension, spacing them as directed and pressing them onto the skin on either side of the wound. They offer a less invasive option than sutures or staples for suitable minor wounds, or support after suture or staple removal, but they are only appropriate for wounds that can be safely closed this way, since deep, gaping, heavily bleeding, high-tension, or infected wounds need sutures, staples, or professional wound closure. Remove the strips gently as directed, monitor the wound for signs of infection or reopening, and follow the care team's guidance, since wound-closure decisions are clinical.
