Here, it is not BS, crazy glue, and medical grade Cyoanoacrylate are pretty much only differentiated by an anti bacterial agent. Apparently in Vietnam, it was used to patch up soldiers livers.

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 veterinary and skin glues). The related compound 2-octyl cyanoacrylate is a medical grade glue; it 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.

Seriously every cut I have had stitched, has left a noticeable scar, I have some that are over 25 years old. Anything I have glued, the scars are almost impossible to find, and they are all less than 5 years old.
There are a ton of tutorials on how to do it. A lot of them do not mention a cauterizing stick, but I just find it makes it easier.
