DEVICE DESCRIPTION: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure is a single-use, sterile, woven silk fibroin mesh strip coated on one side with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The adhesive surface is covered by a removable release liner with a pre-slit tab. 

HOW SUPPLIED: 

Each SYLKE® Skin Closure strip is provided sterile in an individually sealed pouch. The device is available in multiple lengths and widths. Refer to product label and regional catalog for specific dimensions and available packaging configurations.

INTENDED USE:  

SYLKE® Skin Closure is a sterile, single-use, silk fibroin mesh strip with a pressure-sensitive adhesive intended for topical skin closure and wound support. The device is used to hold together well-approximated skin edges of a wound, and to cover and protect the wound. The device is designed for wear of up to 14 days. SYLKE® Skin Closure may be applied by healthcare professionals or, where permitted by applicable laws and regulations, by lay users following the included instructions.  

INDICATIONS:  

SYLKE® Skin Closure is indicated for topical closure and coverage of thoroughly cleansed simple lacerations and minor cuts, where it may be used as the primary skin closure. SYLKE® Skin Closure is also indicated for topical closure and coverage of post-surgical skin incisions in which deeper layers have been closed, where it is used as an adjunct to sutures or staples. Wound edges must be easily approximated without tension. 

CONTRAINDICATIONS: 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on infected or contaminated wounds. Signs of infection may include: pus, pain, warmth, redness, swelling, and/or fever. If any signs of infection are present, seek medical attention.

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use below the skin surface. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on mucosal surfaces or surrounding areas including lips, inside the mouth, eyes, eyelids, or the genital and perianal region.

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is intended to be worn for up to 14 days. Early removal of SYLKE® Skin Closure may result in skin stripping, pain, and/or redness. To aid in early removal, SYLKE® Skin Closure may be soaked in warm water to soften the adhesive. 

  • If signs of infection are present around the wound covered by SYLKE® Skin Closure, contact a medical professional. 

  • Do not use SYLKE® Skin Closure if the sterile package is damaged or compromised. 

  • Individuals with a history of sensitivity to silk or adhesive materials may be at increased risk for skin irritation or allergic reaction. Monitor for signs of hypersensitivity, including redness, swelling, or rash at the application site. If any of these develop, remove the deviceand contact a healthcare provider. 

 PRECAUTIONS: 

  • Apply SYLKE® Skin Closure only to areas where adhesion can be obtained. Causes of inadequate adhesion include exudate, skin oils, moisture, or areas containing dense hair such as the scalp. 

  • Performance of SYLKE® Skin Closure under a secondary dressing has not been evaluated. Healthcare providers should use clinical judgment when considering the use of a secondary dressing over SYLKE® Skin Closure. Lay users should not apply a secondary dressing over SYLKE® Skin Closure without first consulting a healthcare provider. 

  • Submersion in water may impact the device's performance and duration of use.

APPLICATION: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure should only be used on clean, dry wounds when the skin edges of the wound are easily approximated without tension. Examine environment where SYLKE® Skin Closure will be handled and applied and ensure the absence of visible dirt or contaminants. 

  1. Thoroughly cleanse and dry wound to prepare skin for proper adhesion of SYLKE® Skin Closure to the wound edges. (FIGURE A)
  2. Open sterile pouch. Remove SYLKE® Skin Closure strip from pouch. (FIGURE B)
  3. With the release liner still in place, hold the strip alongside the wound to measure the required length. The strip should extend at least 1 cm beyond each end of the wound. (FIGURE C)
  4. Using clean scissors, trim the strip to the appropriate length. (FIGURE D)
  5. Hold the strip and peel back the pre-slit tab to expose the adhesive. (FIGURE E)
  6. Place the exposed adhesive section on the skin at least 1 cm beyond one end of the wound. Press firmly to anchor the strip to the skin. (FIGURE F)
  7. While holding the anchored end in place, slowly peel away the release liner and press the adhesive strip along the length of the wound. The strip should extend at least 1 cm beyond the opposite end of the wound. If the wound length exceeds the length of a single strip, repeat previous steps with additional devices. (FIGURE G)
  8. Press firmly along the entire length of the strip to secure. Check that all edges are flat against the skin and no sections are lifted. Proper adhesion is achieved by applying pressure evenly across the strip. (FIGURE H)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WEAR: 

  • When showering, do not scrub the device with a loofah, exfoliant, or other abrasive. Gently pat dry. 

  • Do not swim or fully submerge the wound while wearing SYLKE® Skin Closure. 

  • Keep wound clean and free of dirt and debris. Dirt trapped in the SYLKE® Skin Closure may cause irritation or infection. 

  • Contact a healthcare provider if the device detaches partially or completely before 14 days or if signs of infection or irritation are present. 

  • Remove SYLKE® Skin Closure after 14 days. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is a single-use device and must not be reapplied after removal 

REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS: 

  1. Gently lift the edge of SYLKE® Skin Closure at one end of the wound.
  2. Slowly peel SYLKE® Skin Closure away from the skin along the line of the wound. Use other hand to stabilize the surrounding skin to decrease tension as the SYLKE® Skin Closure strip is peeled off.
  3. If SYLKE® Skin Closure does not easily remove from skin, soak strip in warm water to soften adhesive.
  4. Once fully removed, discard the skin closure strip in a standard disposal bin. Do not re-use or re-sterilize the device.
  5. Any residual adhesive and/or dried wound exudate can be gently cleaned from the skin with warm soapy water. If residue remains, a medical adhesive remover may be used to loosen adhesive remnants.

Excellent mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
I’ve been using the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen, and it’s become a staple in my routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and uses zinc oxide, providing great protection without causing any irritation or breakouts. It goes on smoothly, isn't overly greasy, and the water resistance holds up well for outdoor activities. The smart cap technology is a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you’re looking for effective, non-irritating sun protection.

No chemicals that will be harmful!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Set name: Tube - 5 oz. 2-Pack
Ordered this mineral sunscreen looking for something simple and effective, and it’s been a solid option so far. The zinc oxide formula is the main reason I went with it. It doesn’t rely on the same chemical ingredients found in a lot of other sunscreens, which is a big plus if you’re trying to avoid that. It feels like a cleaner option overall. Coverage is good. It spreads evenly and holds up well, even with some water exposure. I’ve used it outdoors for extended periods, and it does its job without needing constant reapplication. It does leave a slight white cast at first, which is pretty typical with mineral sunscreens, but it fades in as you rub it in. Not completely invisible, but manageable. After a few uses, what stood out most is that it doesn’t have a strong smell and doesn’t irritate the skin. It just works without a lot of extras. Compared to standard chemical sunscreens, this feels more straightforward and less harsh, especially for regular use. For the price, it’s a great value. You’re getting strong sun protection without the added ingredients some people try to avoid. If you’re looking for a mineral-based sunscreen that’s effective and a bit cleaner in formulation, this is a solid choice.

Great mineral sunscreen that actually works
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 has become my daily go-to. It goes on smooth, doesn’t leave a weird white cast like some mineral sunscreens, and gives solid protection. I like that it’s 100% mineral with no harsh chemicals and has organic aloe vera in it, so my skin feels hydrated instead of dried out. No greasy feeling, no strong scent, and it holds up well even when I sweat a bit. Been using it for a few weeks now and it performs exactly how I want. Small bottle but a little goes a long way. Definitely recommend if you want a simple, effective mineral option.

Fabulous product! Made my skin feel soft!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
This product goes on smooth and a little goes a long way. I used it today for the first time and was very pleased that it held up to my sweating in the heat doing farm work! It doesn’t bother my very sensitive skin, in fact it is quite soothing. A little goes a long way. With about a quarter size amount I was able to do both arms and my face. I was outside for several hours and didn’t burn like I usually do. It is basically unscented which is nice and isn’t sticky.
