Implantable devices and methods for fixation of soft tissue to soft tissue or soft tissue to bone tissue. Generally, the devices can include a body having at least a first area with a plurality of projections extending from the first area for attaching to the soft tissue, and a second area discrete from the first area. The body has physical characteristics sufficient to approximate or to support the soft tissue adjacent the first area with respect to the second area. The plurality of projections are configured to attach to the soft tissue and to distribute tension between the first area and the soft tissue. A soft tissue to bone tissue approximation device is configured to be attached to bone tissue and, using a plurality of projections, also attached to soft tissue.
