Description

Three times wider for easier and faster closure of longer incisions with the same holding strength as standard microMend devices. Ultra-flexible and elastic making it ideal for use in joint surgeries, Cesarean sections, and other procedures in areas of increased movement and varying skin architecture. Available with apertures (W2A) to allow drainage, or without apertures for a solid seal (W2S).

The microMend™ Skin Closure Device is an easy-to-use alternative to sutures or surgical staples when skin closure is required. The Wide-A model is fast and easy to apply like a bandage and features an aperture that allows drainage. MicroMend’s patent-pending microstaple technology reduces procedure time and increases points of contact with the skin along then length of the wound compared to sutures and staples. Also, the device improves patient experience, as they are more comfortable and easier to remove than standard invasive methods of skin closure. Removal can be performed at home by the patient. MicroMend devices can be used on a variety of lacerations and incisions and with wounds of various lengths, as the devices can be applied right next to each other.
