Description

Precision Cosmetic Vicryl Coated Suture is a sterile, absorbable surgical suture designed for use in soft tissue approximation and ligation. Constructed from polyglactin 910, this suture features a braided structure that enhances handling and knot security. The suture is coated with a synthetic material to reduce tissue drag and improve smooth passage through tissues. 

The suture is sized 5-0, providing fine control for delicate wound closure, particularly in facial and other cosmetic surgeries where minimal scarring is desired. Its 18-inch length accommodates multiple suturing needs in a single procedure. The braided configuration offers excellent tensile strength while maintaining flexibility and pliability, which are critical for precise surgical maneuvers.

Absorption occurs through hydrolysis, with complete mass absorption typically within 56 to 70 days, making it suitable for tissues requiring extended support during healing. The coating contributes to reduced tissue inflammation and enhances biocompatibility. Its properties promote effective wound healing with reduced risk of infection or adverse tissue reactions.
