3M SteriStrip Adhesive Skin Closures R1542

these are good for small cuts

Says a pack of 50, in total you just get 50 individual steri strips for that price is a joke. Have bought steri strips for years for work and never did they come like that. Do not buy you can find better

These closures are the exact same as you would get if you ordered directly from a medical supply company like Henry Schein, but are priced much lower here. These work well for small incisions that do not have a lot of stress/friction on the area. You cannot apply any lotion to the skin or healing ointments to the wound when using these, as they will not stick. They are great for dry healing and keeping areas that a suture was just removed together a bit longer. Overall they do a great job for a small closure.

According to the manufacturer, this product has a 60 month shelf life. Mine was shipped to me in May 2019 with an expiry date of October 2021. This means it was just over 50% through its shelf life.

I use steri strips constantly because they’re easier to keep on my skin then a full on bandaid. Especially for things like wicked paper cuts or painful nose bumps. I’m a chronic skin picker and I basically pick band-aids right off too. so something low profile to keep tiny cuts from becoming giant painful things is gr9. My grandma now also uses them to cover little scrapes from her new puppy. If sterility isn’t of MAX concern (Nose zits, surface scrapes etc.) I’ll totally cut them even smaller to make it go further 😂Just had to edit and add these things were a LIFE SAVER after I had a laparoscopic procedure and the skin glue basically peaced out in like a day. If it wasn’t for having these steri strips on hand I would have 100% ended up with at least one infected incision site and several gnarly abdominal scars. I even put it over the ones that still had glue on to hold my skin together more securely. Huge difference my surgeon was blown away with how good my scars looked at follow up.
