The film will usually remain in place for 5 to 10 days, then, naturally slough (fall) off your skin.
Speed and Convenience:
- Incisions may be closed than with regular stitches
- You may spend less time under anesthesia
Recovery:
- No need to have stitches removed
- Forms a strong, flexible bond and protective barrier for your incision that seals out most common infection-causing bacteria, including certain Staph, Pseudomonas and E.coli
- Shower or bathe (but don't soak) - the wound doesn't need to be kept dry
- Disappears naturally as the incision heals
- Bandages and dressings are usually not needed, so you and your trained clinical professional can easily keep an eye on your incisions as they heal
- Eliminates the need for bandages
Comfort:
- Gentler to your skin than stitches
- Often more comfortable than stitches or staples
Cosmesis:
- DERMABOND Adhesive is particularly appropriate for facial incisions where using stitches and stitch removal can be painful. And it's faster, so you spend less time under anesthesia
- No stitches mean no "trackmarks" (the little discolored dots you often see alongside a healed incision that has been stitched)
- Many cosmetic surgeons prefer the use of DERMABOND Adhesive to replace the more noticeable stitches and bandages usually required to close and protect the incision
- Cosmetic results comparable to stitches
