Skin Hook 15cm

Clinical Application

Provides precise point traction on skin edges during procedures that require controlled exposure of superficial tissue. Commonly used in dermatology, plastic and reconstructive surgery, minor general surgical procedures, and wound debridement to elevate or tension the epidermis for excision, undermining, suturing, and fine dissection. The fine hook tip allows secure engagement of thin or friable skin where forceps would crush tissue.

Design & Configuration

The single‑hook, hand‑held configuration delivers focused point contact for predictable traction with minimal bulk in the field. A slender shaft preserves line of sight to the operative site and allows the assistant or surgeon to apply controlled tension without obscuring anatomy. The 15 cm working length gives sufficient reach for most superficial procedures while remaining compact for tabletop and ambulatory settings.
