Description
Suture Strip® Plus with Maximum Dynamic Adherence is a latex free premium wound closure strip that provides superior wound security. It is made of macroporous non-woven polyamide with a pressure sensitive adhesive. The proprietary materials allow Suture Strip Plus to have a perfect balance between elasticity and adherence, closely mimicking the elastic modulus of human skin. The inherent elasticity of the product allows the strips to elongate and yield to the movement of skin, preventing the concentration of forces at the proximal ends and reducing the chances of traction blisters or skin shear.
The strips are water resistant and have a skin-friendly adhesive. Suture Strip® Plus is ideal for primary wound closure of surface tissue as well as traumatic wound closure such as skin tears. It is also ideal for instances when aesthetic results are of great importance, such as in plastic surgery.
