Wound Closure Strips 75mm x 3mm x 5 Strips (Pack of 10)

I've used wound closure strips on a few occasions, and I'm really impressed with how well they work. They're easy to use, they're effective at keeping wounds closed, and they're relatively painless to remove.The wound closure strips were easy to apply. I simply cleaned the wound and then applied the strips according to the instructions. there is quiet a good amount in the package and its quiet cheap ovealldefo will order a few more for the medkit box.I was really impressed with how well the wound closure strips worked, especially considering that the impact site was on my hand, which is a high productivity area. Other wound closure methods, such as plaster /bandages, had kept coming loose over time, but the wound closure strips kept everything sealed tightly even when my hands got wet.

tried these on a deep cut done the job but have to keep them dry

Ideal for patching up my unruly children, they are forever falling out of trees and off bikes. I find that, once the wound is clean, closing it with these strips helps to stop the bleeding, speed up healing and reduce scarring. Obviously if the injury looked like in needed profesional medical attention I would take them down to the doctors, but on small wounds this can make a big difference and it is great to have them on hand to use immediatly.I have found them to be strong enough and sticky enough. I usually apply them in a criss cross pattern to give a stronger hold - this is especially important on more mobile areas - knees and elbows - it is usually knees and elbows. For kids I find covering with a tube bandage helps to keep the wound clean and prevent picking an pulling at the strips.

Good

Crushed my finger in a door and tore the skin, didn’t want to go to a&e, as they are so busy ! And can’t see our GP, no face to face appts allowed, so decided we would try to dress it ourselves. The steri strips helped to pull the torn skin together all around my finger, then dressed with sterile dressings. Wore a glove in the shower and changed daily, by day five it was knitting together well and three weeks later it was healed ! Bought a larger pack to keep in first aid kit for next injury !!!!!

Not as adhesive as proper ones so just use extras when applying and a longer strip than usual, but good value.

Perfect stitches that definately have to be in the house for an emergency situation.These are very strong and sticky and not coming off from the skin that easily, strips definately will hold the cut together.Perfectly affordable and worth to buy.Thank you

These work great. Either in full length or cut them in half. I then use tweezers to peel them off and apply. Applying one side on the skin, then close the cut and tape the other side down. Work your way along the cut until it is held closed. You can then apply a large plaster over the top to keep it clean.This is a must to keep in the medicine cabinet for those emergencies.
