DermaClip® Non-Invasive Skin Closure Strips

DermaClip® Non-Invasive Skin Closure Strips

DermaClip non-invasive skin closure strips give clinicians a needle-free way to close wounds, lacerations, and the final layers of surgical incisions. This ventilated polypropylene strip pulls skin edges into full eversion without staples, sutures, or local anesthesia. As a result, patients avoid the discomfort that often comes with traditional closure methods. Emergency departments, surgical suites, urgent care centers, and field medicine teams choose this device when speed and precision matter most. Additionally, the clear, breathable design lets providers monitor the wound site throughout recovery without removing the closure.

Each strip comes in a clear, ventilated polypropylene material that supports airflow and helps limit moisture buildup at the closure site. Furthermore, DermaClip offers four size configurations so providers can match the device to the wound: 1 inch x 11 mm, 1 inch x 21 mm, 3 inch x 11 mm, and 3 inch x 21 mm. Clinicians can also stack or combine sizes to accommodate wounds longer than a single package covers. Therefore, one product line handles a wide range of laceration lengths without forcing a switch between brands.

Non-Invasive Closure for Faster Recovery

DermaClip closes wounds through mechanical eversion instead of penetration. First, the provider positions the strip across the wound edges. Then, gentle, even tension draws the skin into alignment. This atraumatic approach works well for pediatric patients, needle-averse patients, and situations where anesthesia is not practical, such as austere or field environments. Moreover, military medics and first responders rely on this design for rapid closure outside a traditional clinical setting.

DermaClip also fits smoothly into standard surgical workflow. Surgeons frequently use it to finish the outer layer of an incision after deeper sutures close the wound below the surface. Meanwhile, wound care specialists select it for its ability to deliver a repeatable, consistent closure line across similar wound types. In addition, the strip’s clear design supports better documentation, since providers can photograph or inspect the site without disturbing the seal.

Storage and Handling

Store DermaClip strips in a cool, dry location, ideally between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and keep the packaging sealed until use. Each unit ships as a single-use, sterile device, so providers should not attempt to reuse or resterilize an opened package. Consequently, facilities that stock multiple sizes should rotate inventory using standard first-in, first-out practices to preserve adhesive performance.
