1. A sutureless wound closure device comprising:
a) a base layer for attaching the device to skin; and b) an upper tensioning layer having a first end anchored to the base layer and a second, opposite free end configured to attach to the base layer, wherein the base layer defines an aperture entirely surrounded by a material of the base layer, and, when in use, the aperture is entirely covered by the upper tensioning layer, the aperture having a width and a length greater than the width, and the aperture being sized to surround an incision or wound in the skin; and wherein attaching the second end of the upper tensioning layer to the base layer narrows the width of the aperture. |
