Home Care Advice - Liquid Skin Bandage for Minor Cuts and Scrapes

Liquid Skin Bandage for Minor Cuts and Scrapes

  • Liquid skin bandage is a new product that seals wounds with a plastic coating that lasts up to 1 week.
  • Liquid skin bandage has several benefits when compared to a regular bandage (e.g., a dressing or a Band-Aid). Liquid Bandage only needs to be applied once to minor cuts and scrapes. It helps stop minor bleeding. It seals the wound and may promote faster healing and lower infection rates. However, it is also more expensive.
  • After the wound is washed and dried, the liquid is applied by spray or with a swab. It dries in less than a minute. It's resistant to bathing.
  • This new product is available at your local pharmacy.
