There is a good reason that the skin fails more often than the sutures. The reason is that the skin is elastic and the sutures are not. What's needed are sutures that are elastic that with stretch with the skin instead of just tearing thru it. The sutures have to be BOTH strong enough to hold AND elastic enough to move with highly elastic skin so they don't tear thru it. SPider silk is one of the few materials that could adequately meet both requirements.
