Surgical staplers are devices which bend a usually stainless steel "staple" across an incision as an alternative to sutures. They have a slightly lower rate of infection and are quicker to apply, but are much more difficult to remove in a DIY context (a specialized staple remover is strongly recommended, although they can be hand-removed). Staples are rarely used in atypical body modification and are more common as a part of BDSM play in this context.
