ABRA® Surgical Skin Closure engaged full-thickness skin and closes high-tension, retracted skin defects, leaving nothing behind except a sound primary repair.

Watch this video to see how ABRA® Surgical Skin Closure System works.

The ABRA® Surgical Skin Closure system restores the primary closure option for retracted skin defects. Over time this dynamic wound closure system re-approximates the skin margins under low tension while normalising compartment pressures, eliminating the need to graft by enabling a primary closure.
