Absorbable Subcuticular Skin Staple
INSORB staples are placed entirely underneath the surface layer of skin (epidermis). These staples offer clinical benefits, are cost-effective1, and highly patient-centric. Wound care for c-section patients with absorbable staples is similar to care for conventional incision closures, and may even have fewer complications2.
