Clinical Application
Designed to provide precise point traction on skin and superficial soft tissues, this two-prong skin hook is used in dermatology, plastic and reconstructive procedures, ENT, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and general minor surgical cases. It facilitates controlled retraction of wound edges, undermining of cutaneous flaps, and exposure during fine suturing or debridement without bulk obstructing the field.
Design & Configuration
The two-prong (2-pr) tip geometry gives secure, focal grip on thin tissue while minimizing slippage. The slender shaft and 15 cm length provide reach into shallow cavities or deeper wounds while keeping the working end visible for precise manipulation. The simple hook configuration allows quick engagement and release of skin during flap elevation and suture placement, enabling efficient, controlled steps in procedures that require delicate soft-tissue handling.
