Description

The Gillies Skin Hook is a precision surgical instrument designed for the gentle retraction of skin and superficial soft tissues during plastic, reconstructive, maxillofacial, and dermatologic procedures. It provides controlled tissue elevation and exposure while minimizing trauma to delicate anatomical structures. The instrument is widely used in facial surgery and other procedures where precise soft tissue handling is critical.

The instrument is available in two hook sizes to accommodate different surgical requirements. The small version features a 3.5 mm hook width, while the large version incorporates a 5 mm hook width. These options allow surgeons to select the most appropriate hook size based on tissue thickness, retraction requirements, and the anatomical area being treated. The fine hook profile provides secure engagement while minimizing tissue damage.

With an overall length of 18 cm (7″), the Gillies Skin Hook offers excellent reach and precise control during delicate procedures. Its slim shaft and ergonomic handle design help maintain unobstructed visualization of the surgical field while providing reliable tactile feedback. The lightweight construction supports accurate tissue manipulation and comfortable handling during extended procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, every Gillies Skin Hook undergoes rigorous quality control inspection to ensure durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. Its multiple hook size options, refined design, and atraumatic retraction capabilities make it a valuable instrument for plastic and reconstructive surgery.
