Gizmodo : Johnson & Johnson Dermabond

Gizmodo : Johnson & Johnson Dermabond

dermabond

"Is purple your favorite color? Do you often lose to yourself in drunken games of mumblypeg? Good news for you, then. DERMABOND (From the latin for 'skin' and 'sticky') by a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary is a liquid stitching system— simply pinch the wound to bring the skin together, apply two layers of Dermabond, and hold for about a minute. It forms a durable, flexible bond that stays around for about a week. In pleasant violet, because your bar buddies deserve no less. Similar technology has been in use for quite a while, but Johnson & Johnson is pushing it to consumers, whose love for self-inflicted wounds have been increasing since the discovery of LiveJournal."
