Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
PEAK Surgical has developed a family of disposable surgical cutting and coagulation tools to ensure that plastic/reconstructive surgeons have the technology they need for a variety of procedures:
- The PlasmaBlade 4.0, which is designed to be used to cut through all types of soft tissue, including skin, fat and muscle.
- The PlasmaBlade 3.0S has complete intregrated suction with a telescoping shaft for an extended reach of up to 15cm.
- The PlasmaBlade Needle, which has a fine needlepoint tip, is specifically designed for use in ultra-precise surgical procedures and on very delicate skin, such as the face and eyelids.
- The PlasmaBlade EXT is designed for use in surgical procedures requiring an extended tip to reach deep into the body, such as to create a pocket to place an implant in breast reconstruction surgery or to work under a large tissue flap.
The PlasmaBlade in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
The PlasmaBlade provides plastic/reconstructive surgeons with a single tissue dissection device that offers several features and benefits:
- It quickly and easily cuts through all types of tissue, including skin, fat and muscle, and dissects in a wet or dry surgical field.
- It provides the same positive wound healing profile of minimal scarring and inflammation as a scalpel but with 59 percent less bleeding.9
- It provides 65 percent stronger incision burst strength at six weeks than traditional electrosurgery.3
- Equivalent healed incision strength and scar width to the scalpel.3
- It eliminates the need to switch between a scalpel and a traditional electrosurgery or cautery device, improving workflow efficiency and reducing the chance for sharps injuries or burns.40,43
- Because of the lower temperature and minimal tissue charring associated with the PlasmaBlade, it may reduce the possibility of surgical smoke associated with traditional electrosurgery, which can obscure the operating field.43,44
- The reduced thermal injury profile of the PlasmaBlade may offer a risk reduction compared to traditional electrosurgery when dissecting near sensitive anatomy or in confined spaces.44
