3M Skin Closures (Reinforced) are the standard for wound closure and wound support.
Sterile skin closure strips that are made of a porous, non-woven backing coated with a pressure-sensitive, hypoallergenic adhesive and reinforced with polyester filaments for added strength.
Reinforced Steri-Strip skin closures provide general wound support for increased tensile strength and finer wound edge approximation.

• White, non-woven, rayon-backed, material reinforced with filaments for strength
• Microporous material is breathable
• Hypoallergenic adhesive
• Provides wound support and assists in increasing the tensile strength of the wound
• Provides better cosmetic outcome than sutures or staples
• Permits early staple/suture removal
• Allows finer wound edge approximation
• Latex-free
• Reduces the risk of infection

Benefits:

• Less scarring when compared to staples or sutures.
• Enhances patient comfort and less chance of infection than with sutures or staples.
• Fast application.
• Comfortable to wear.
• Reduces likelihood of skin irritation.

Suggested Applications:

• Providing wound support following early suture or staple removal.
• Appropriate for low tension wounds.
