A soft tissue closure system for closing a percutaneous puncture site or soft tissue voids, its method of manufacture and method of use are disclosed. The system comprises a delivery means and a self-expandable, resorbable implant disposed within the delivery means in a compressed configuration. Upon release of the implant member from the system within a soft tissue void, the implant member self-expands to conform to the shape of the soft tissue void and seals the void.
