Product details
Sutures provide wound support and increase the tensile strength of the wound compared to stitches. They improve cosmetic outcomes, and the non-invasive, sterile design reduces scarring as well as the risk of infection compared to stitches and staples, with less tissue trauma and better cosmetic results. They are gentle on patients and more comfortable to wear than stitches, as they use hypoallergenic adhesive.
The sutures allow for early removal of staples or stitches and help patients return to their normal routine more quickly. They are more cost-effective than skin adhesives, stitches, or staples. Additionally, they are easy to apply and offer a quick application.
The 3M Steri-Strip reinforced skin closures are the standard for skin closures, known for their convenience, simplicity, and non-invasive design. They consist of a sterile, breathable adhesive strip reinforced with polymer filaments for a strong and reliable closure of incisions and skin injuries.
Suggested applications: Steri-Strip reinforced skin closures are versatile and are used for closing cuts, surgical incisions, and after early removal of stitches or staples. They are suitable for emergency rooms, operating rooms, clinics, and medical practices, as well as for same-day surgery centers.
