Abstract: The instant invention is a kit and a method for closing a wound. The kit for closing a wound includes at least one transparent support layer, and a flowable adhesive. The support layer includes a pressure-sensitive adhesive coating on one side thereof. The method for closing a wound includes the following steps: (1) providing a kit for closing a wound which includes at least one transparent support layer that has a pressure-sensitive adhesive coating on one side thereof, and a flowable adhesive; (2) aligning skin edges of the wound thereby juxtaposing the opposite margins of the wound next to each other; (3) affixing the transparent support layer on the juxtaposed margins of the wound thereby securing the opposite margins of the wound in the juxtaposed position; (4) applying the flowable adhesive to the exposed portions of the support layer and the wound; (5) allowing the adhesive to solidify; and (6) thereby closing the wound.
