FYI: You can monitor the
wound as it heals with Clozex
Surgical Skin Closures, a
clear, water-resistant adhe-
sive that consists of a series of
inter-laced adhesive pulling
straps. The adhesive can
reduce skin closure time by
50% while also providing high-
level control and exceptional
cosmetic results, says the
company. It can approximate both sides of a wound at the same time,
which ensures equal or symmetrical distribution of tension on both
the product and the skin. Applied independently to each side of the
wound, 1 mm to 2 mm from each edge, to allow for more precise
placement and better skin alignment. Comes in a variety of sizes,
ranging from 1 inch x 1
3
⁄8 inch to 4 inches x 2 inches.
