  • Do not use over large areas of the body or near the eyes.
  • Do not use over wounds that cannot be cleaned out.

  • The skin should be clean and dry prior to application.
  • Skin closure strips must be applied without tension.
  • Do not stretch the strips to apply.
  • If the wound bleeds after the skin closure strips have been applied, another method of wound closure may be required.
  • If the wound site becomes infected, consult your physician.
