A skin attachment member (10) of plastic resin, includes a sheet-form backin g (12), and an array of skin penetrating elements (14) extending integrally fr om the backing. The skin penetrating elements are configured to penetrate into the epidermal skin layer and are sized to limit painful contact with nerves below the epidermal skin layer. At least many of the skin penetrating elemen ts (14) each include at least one retention barb (20) extending from an outer surface of the skin penetrating element. The barbs are configured to coopera te to resist removal of the skin attachment member from skin. The skin penetrating elements have a cone-shaped (18) body with a pointed tip (24). T he skin penetrating elements can have a groove (30) in their outer surface (32) . The skin attachment member is formed by molding. |
