Wounds closed with ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive are protected from further infection. Also the wound edges are closely laying side by side for the whole length of the wound and therefore the healing process is accelerated. Ugly scars are avoided and according to our experience keloids develop rarely. In a study 33% of the patients have rated the scar formation better after adhesion than with sutures.
