Description

Skin Affix™ is a sterile, high-viscosity liquid topical skin adhesive designed for the closure of simple lacerations, wounds, and minimally invasive surgical procedures. This product utilizes a proprietary formulation of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate, which rapidly polymerizes upon application, providing secure and durable wound closure within minutes. Its effectiveness makes it a viable alternative to sutures for incisions up to size 5-0 or smaller, streamlining the process of wound repair.

The adhesive's primary benefits include its ability to save time during wound closure by eliminating the need for sutures and subsequent suture removal. Skin Affix™ forms a flexible, water-resistant barrier over the wound, offering protection against microbial contamination and ensuring that the wound remains secure while the healing process occurs.

The applicator is designed for efficient application, with a hollow tip that allows for prolonged use and minimizes waste. The dark violet tint of the adhesive facilitates easy application and precise placement, ensuring optimal coverage with minimal material. This design improves operational efficiency in both operating rooms and emergency settings by reducing the urgency of application and waste.
