My family used superglue at home for cuts all the time. Not really much worse than doctor stitches.

The difference between you and a doctor for little things like stitches that causes the $5k price tag is a couple of hours of study, credentialism, beurocracy and malpractice insurance. Only the couple of hours study is actually needed and you can do that yourself pretty easily with the internet.

There's medical grade superglue, it's a bit more expensive than regular superglue which has mildly toxic byproducts.
