Cushing Nerve and Vein Retractor 9" - 23cm

Cushing Nerve and Vein Retractor, 9" - 23cm

Nerves and vessels sit close to the dissection plane in a lot of facial plastic surgery, and avoiding injury to either is a constant priority. The Cushing Nerve and Vein Retractor is built around that priority directly — a gentle, atraumatic blade profile that retracts tissue without the mechanical risk a sharper instrument would introduce nearby.

Atraumatic by Design, Not by Accident

Smooth, rounded edges hold tissue in place through gentle contact rather than sharp engagement. That gives surgeons the exposure they need while reducing risk to structures whose injury could carry real functional consequences for the patient.

9 Inches, Versatile Enough for Several Applications

Its substantial reach makes this retractor useful for a range of plastic and reconstructive work, from navigating the facial nerve's branches during facelift surgery to reconstructive cases with significant vascular structures nearby.

Supporting a Careful, Deliberate Approach

Surgery in dense neurovascular territory calls for deliberate technique, and having a retractor specifically designed to minimize risk supports that approach directly—adequate exposure without unnecessary risk to structures that need identifying, protecting, and preserving throughout.

Beyond Facelift Applications

While closely associated with facelift work, the same gentle, protective design lends itself to broader reconstructive procedures wherever nerve- and vessel-adjacent dissection is part of the plan.
