Types of Suture Kits
Suture Kits
Suturing is the most common method for closing wounds. You will need a few basic tools and some practice, but sutures give you the flexibility to use the right tool for the right job. Some of the benefits to a suturing kit are:
Adaptive: Not all wounds are equal and neither should your method of closing them. Our suture kits come with different size suture thread and needles for any situation.
Minimized Risk Of Infection: Your body does not like foreign material in it. Studies have shown that sutures minimize the risk of infection while keeping scaring to a minimal.
Easily removable: Suture can be removed very easily with minimal pain. Just a quick snip and the suture can be pulled out once they are ready.

Skin staplers are an alternative to sutures. They provide a quick and simple tool to use when you quickly need to close a wound or you have no one to help with a procedure. Skin staplers usually take less time to use than sutures and can be used one handed in a pinch. Also a good option when you have multiple people to treat in a short period of time. Some of the benefits to a skin stapler are:
Ease Of Use: Skin Staplers are easier to use than sutures. Line it up and pull the trigger and you are ready to go.
Quick: Skin Staplers are also quicker to close wounds than sutures. With a squeeze of the trigger you can place multiple staples in less time than it takes to open a pack of sutures
