No contact with wound is necessary when applying Histoacryl, allowing for less traumatic wound closure - Improved patient comfort and less risk of disrupting wound edges.
Histoacryl seals quickly and polymerizes in just 30 seconds - Significantly faster wound closure than sutures as well as other legally marketed skin adhesives.
Only a single layer of adhesive is necessary to achieve a full strength bond - Cost effective and saves time.
Histoacryl sloughs off naturally in 7 to 10 days. A follow-up visit for suture removal is not required - Increased patient convenience and reduced physician time.
Histoacryl acts as a barrier to microbial penetration as long as the protective adhesive film remains intact. The microbial barrier properties were demonstrated by in-vitro studies - Seals out common forms of bacteria that may cause infection.
Applying light pressure to the ampoule dispenses adhesive accurately. Histoacryl may be applied as minute drops or as a thin film along the edges of the wound - Precise, controlled, non-clogging, easy-to-use ampoule.
