Steroplast Hypoallergenic Wound Closures / Sutures 3mm x 75mm 10 Pouches of 5 Strips

Every household should keep some of these handy! Works really well on cuts on fingers from food prep. More effective than regular plasters especially for deeper wider cuts.

Good adhesion does what supposed to do

I saw the district nurses use these on my mother's leg after the skin was scraped off to keep the flap of skin in place. I hadn't realised such things existed and so decided to get some considering the price isn't too bad. You never know when they might come in useful.

Perfect for cuts and injuries that don't require stitches, but still need to be held closed to assist healing and reduce scarring. These can be cut to size for smaller cuts as well as larger wounds. The glue and material doesn't seem to affect my families allergy to conventional plaster glue, so that's a plus. These are also useful for holding dressings in awkward areas or places where there is movement, where ordinary tape fails. A must have for the first aid cabinet, you'll wonder how you ever managed without them.

Excellent value product. For the same price I could get a box containing 10 strips from Boots, however in this you get 10 packs of 5 strips (50 total.)Each pack of 5 strips is sealed in airtight packaging to maintain the adhesive and for the purpose of hygiene. Does the job it is required to do, and at a good price.

Got these for my Mum who cut her leg on the top of the shin and needed something just to support the healing process. The sutures were easy to apply and stayed on the skin for a good couple of weeks through showers and normal trouser wear. This really helped. Will recommend.

Don't stick too well. Oh well maybe one day will have some who will stay were they should be.

Nobody has time for stitches at A&E! Slashed my leg open with a stanley knife; a few of these and my wife can close a 2 inch long 1cm deep gash in no time and i'm back doing something useful with the day.
