Face lift Retractor 22mm, with Fiber Optic Light Guide Option

Face Lift Retractor, 22mm, Fiber Optic Light Guide

Deeper tissue planes in facelift surgery don't get much help from standard overhead lighting once the surgeon's hands occupy the space above the field. This Face Lift Retractor combines a 22mm blade with fiber optic light guide compatibility, bringing illumination directly where standard lighting can't reliably reach.

22 mm, Sized for the Job

This blade width supports the flap elevation and tissue repositioning stages central to the facelift procedure, offering practical exposure without becoming unwieldy within the facial surgical field.

Light Where Shadowing Would Otherwise Interfere

Fiber optic illumination helps eliminate the shadowing that occurs when the surgeon's own hands and instruments block overhead light—particularly valuable during deeper dissection stages, where consistent visualization directly supports safer, more precise handling.

Gentle Enough for a Visible Result

The blade's smooth, atraumatic edge holds facial tissue in position without unnecessary trauma during extended retraction—cleaner healing matters given how visible the facial result ultimately is to the patient.

Works Across procedure Preferences

This illuminated design supports traditional open facelift approaches and can complement endoscopic procedures wherever additional field illumination adds value, making it versatile regardless of a surgeon's preferred approach.
