Steri-Strips—also called butterfly stitches, butterfly closures, or wound closure strips—are adhesive bandages used by surgeons as a backup to dissolvable stitches or when regular stitches are removed.
Steri‐Strip skin closures are indicated for use as a skin closure device in the treatment of lacerations and surgical incisions. Steri‐Strip skin closures may also be used in conjunction with skin sutures and staples or after their removal for wound support.
