Testimonials

"I really like the PlasmaBlade over the Harmonic blade for breast reconstruction and cases where large flaps of tissue have to be raised. The PlasmaBlade coagulates and cuts through the tissue effortlessly without need for much of pressure on the tissue. The Harmonic blade requires more pressure and tension on the tissue which at times cause shearing of smaller vessels and bleeding prior to complete coagulation. For large flap dissections the PlasmaBlade is more efficient than the Harmonic blade."

"I just saw the patient who had the bilateral total capsulectomies and breast implant removal using the PlasmaBlade from last week. She did fabulously well and as you predicted the amount of postoperative pain was minimal. She took only one pain pill after her surgery and at one week is singing my praises!"

"Because the PlasmaBlade cuts at a lower temperature than traditional electrosurgical devices, it reduces collateral tissue damage and scarring, which is important for patients undergoing plastic surgery procedures."

"Because the PlasmaBlade operates at such low temperatures there is significantly less thermal damage as visible by less “char” at the time of surgery. This lower cutting temperature allows me to perform surgery without all the smoke and with no sacrifice in the ability to coagulate blood vessels."

"We have been impressed with the reduced tissue charring and the ability to work close to delicate and sensitive tissues with the PlasmaBlade, which is especially important in gynecologic procedures in which the bowel, ureter and ovaries are close by."

"I am a surgeon in New Hampshire - recently acquainted with the new PlasmaBlade. I have been a surgeon for thirty years and I think this is the best innovation I have seen! I truly believe in your product."

"The ability to adequately cauterize tissue with the PlasmaBlade is at least equivalent to conventional electrosurgery with far less tissue damage. I believe that the PlasmaBlade will replace all conventional electrosurgical systems and minimize, if not alleviate, the need for a scalpel."

"The PlasmaBlade has made a tremendous impact on my practice; because the device is almost entirely insulated it can do everything that my scalpel can do and more, with less post operative bruising and a faster recovery for my patients."

"We have used the PlasmaBlade for several cases and have had a very impressive experience. The ease of deepithelialization speeds up the surgery wonderfully. Most impressive is the fact that after the deepithelilialization process we can see the vascularity of the pedicle and the deepithelialized skin has been preserved with tiny points of perfusion from both surfaces. When a breast reduction was done side by side with a traditional cautery and the PlasmaBlade the blood loss was noticeably reduced. The ability to cut tissue expeditiously in the presence of Tumescent or blood also significantly speeds up the surgery and reduces blood loss."

"I like the fact that the PEAK PlasmaBlade cuts in a fluid-filled field. It does not lose cutting and coagulation performance in these cases, and this is very beneficial."

"I usually use the CO2 laser to incise the skin in upper blepharoplasty and the conjunctiva in lower blepharoplasty. The PlasmaBlade with the arrow tip allows me to do the same things as well as remove and coagulate fat without the cumbersome laser tip and without the need for a smoke evacuator to remove the smoke plume. The incisions are virtually bloodless, as it cuts and coagulates at the same time. A great advance!"

"The PEAK Surgery System represents a quantum leap in technology. It cuts like a knife with minimal scarring and collateral damage. And it eliminates the time and confusion from using two separate instruments to precisely cut delicate tissues and to control bleeding."

"Thanks for the use of the PlasmaBlade. The patient is doing very well. Her post-op hemoglobin is 12.3. It is the best post-op hgb I have seen in any of my non-smoking patients. Let's keep using this device!"
