More Info About Tension and Brijjit
Tension on a healing wound is one of the major factors driving excess scar formation and poor scar appearance.
The process by which tension leads to increased scarring is incredibly complex. One simple but effective way we have to influence the ultimate result is by relieving the mechanical tension on an incision or wound. This helps minimize excess collagen production and shortens the inflammatory phase of wound healing.
That’s where Brijjit comes in.
With our simple yet elegant product, we are able to help support wounds by relieving tension for longer periods of time. By recruiting tissue on both sides of the wound and protecting the wound from forces associated with swelling or movement, Brijjit dramatically reduces tension to allow wounds to heal beautifully.

Why Brijjit?
Unlike traditional sutures that cinch, cut, pull and knot, the Brijjit device is designed to gently close the skin naturally and non-invasively, while promoting scar-friendly healing.
Brijjit is Easy to Wear
Brijjit uses an adhesive common in the medical industry due to its reputation for being gentle on the skin. The bridge design has multiple windows to allow your skin to breathe, while still providing the support needed to help you heal beautifully.
