Tissue expanders
Tissue expanders are used in reconstructive surgery for the expansion of a patients skin to close an adjacent skin defect or to create excess skin in the case of breast implants. The expander is implanted under the skin and is expanded with the injection of physiological saline.
Features
- Dacron Base : (Provides unidirectional expansion/prevents the prosthesis from moving.)
- One piece tubing design: (Prevents leakage, Safer for the patient.)
- Dimethyl Composition dipped 5 times: (Provides strength.)
