3m Steri Strip Skin Suture Strips 75mm X 6mm

Directions for Use: 1. Clean and dry the wound area thoroughly. Ensure the skin is free of any ointments, lotions, or oils. 2. If necessary, trim the Steri-Strip to the desired length. 3. Peel the Steri-Strip from its backing, handling it by the ends to avoid touching the adhesive. 4. Starting at the center of the wound, gently place one end of the Steri-Strip on one side of the wound, then bring the edges together and secure the other end of the strip. 5. Apply additional Steri-Strips parallel to the first one, spaced approximately 1/8 inch (3mm) apart, overlapping slightly, until the wound is closed. 6. Avoid stretching the strips during application.

Recommended Frequency: Leave the Steri-Strips in place until they begin to peel off on their own, typically 5-10 days. Do not forcibly remove them. If the strips become wet or soiled, they may need to be replaced sooner.

Additional Tips: For best results, apply Steri-Strips to clean, dry skin. Avoid using on areas with high tension or movement, such as joints. Do not apply over infected wounds. If redness, swelling, or drainage occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. These strips are not a substitute for stitches for deep or gaping wounds. If you are unsure about the severity of your wound, seek medical advice.
