Autosuture

An autosuture is a handheld medical device, descended from the 20th century suture, that has been used by Starfleet Medical since the 22nd century. The modern autosuture is laser-based and is used to treat and heal wounds from surgery or deep trauma by stimulating the patient’s own anabolism. It is used where the Dermal Regenerator is inadequate.
