Different surgical techniques and devices have been utilized for the closure of wounds but they are very expensive. We developed a new, easy and inexpensive dermatotraction technique based on the simple use of Ty–Raps by using biomechanical properties of the skin. In this article, we evaluated its feasibility, the costs, outcomes and the mean time to closure of wound. We concluded that the Top–Closure by Ty–Raps is an innovative technique for wound closure of medium to large skin defects. Complications and donor site morbidities were nil. We appreciate itslow cost, general availability and effectiveness.
