Super glue is used as a replacement for sutures in some medical procedures. We were taught to use it to close up wounds in an emergency, I've never tried it, but I can attest to its bonding strength on skin

Wiki:
Cyanoacrylate is the generic name for cyanoacrylate based fast-acting adhesives such as methyl 2-cyanoacrylate, ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate (commonly sold under trade names like Super Glue and Krazy Glue), and n-butyl cyanoacrylate (used in the veterinary glues Vetbond and LiquiVet and skin glues like GluStitch, Xoin, Indermil, LiquiBand® and Histoacryl). 2-octyl cyanoacrylate is a medical grade glue encountered under various trade names; e.g., derma+flex® QS™, SurgiSeal, octylseal, FloraSeal, Dermabond, Surgi-Lock and Nexaband. This was developed to be non-toxic and less irritating to skin tissue. Cyanoacrylate adhesives are sometimes known as "instant glues". The abbreviation "CA" is commonly used for industrial grades."
