The adhesive skin suture is a must in the first aid kit because of its usefulness in treating superficial cuts, especially if there are small and restless children in the home.
The adhesive Steri-Strip skin suture is placed transversely over the wounds to join the edges and thus facilitate healing. This dressing has better aesthetic results than traditional surgical sutures, making it a better option when small wounds are present on the face.
It's made of porous rayon to allow the wound to breathe, stay dry and allow drainage. It also has an adhesive that will not contaminate the wound with any residue. It is a hypoallergenic material, suitable even for those who are allergic to latex.
