Conventional wound closure techniques, such as suturing and stapling, often cause infection, delayed healing, and tissue damage, particularly in fragile or compromised tissues. A sutureless, battery-free adhesive strip (SBF strip) is developed to integrate shape-memory-assisted mechanical approximation with impedance-matched electrical stimulation for enhanced tissue repair. The device incorporates a shape memory polymer (SMP) responsive at near-body temperature and a robust wet-adhesive interface (> 200 J m(-2)), enabling rapid attachment and uniform closure under mild heating (40 °C). A built-in ultrasound-driven triboelectric system achieves optimal skin-impedance matching (~50 kΩ), generating electric fields up to 0.59 kV m(-1) under 0.5 W cm(-2) to promote cellular migration and proliferation. Finite element simulations reveal that SMP-induced contraction redistributes local mechanical strain, reducing scarring. In vivo rat studies demonstrate a 61.7% reduction in scar area compared to sutures, along with improved epithelial regeneration, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis. This mechanically and electrically synergistic platform offers a scalable, battery-free wound therapy strategy, reducing dependence on external power and disposable components while enabling precision-guided healing.
