Finally! Scentists Invent the Ouchless Bandage.

You would think that a painless bandage would have been developed years ago!  We all have experienced the pain of pulling off a band-aid, especially when there is hair that is ripped out with its removal.

This can be an even worse for newborn babies whose skin is extremely fragile.

After observing spider webs and gecko feet for inspiration, MIT biomedical engineers have created a type of adhesive tape with three layers. A non-sticky backing and an adhesive layer are connected by an anti-adhesive layer.  The bandage is able to stick by a pattern on the non-adhesive section and does not pull when removed.

Yeah...I don't get it either, but if it works that's all that matters.
