Diamond Cosmetic Scalpels

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 23 Oct 2005
New diamond scalpels designed for cosmetic surgery are much sharper than the best steel blades and, as a result, they ensure that the surgeon can make incisions with extreme precision and excellent maneuverability.

The scalpels were developed by Element Six B.V. More...
(Cuijk, The Netherlands). The company has incorporated a special LeurLock handle and a bayonet mechanism for blade retraction into the diamond cosmetic scalpel, enabling thorough cleaning and sterilization in a conventional surgical instrument washing machine. The ability to repeatedly clean and sterilize the blade without the risk of damaging the extremely sharp edge results in a cosmetic surgery blade having the lowest cost per procedure.

Many surgeons have reported that this new scalpel gives an extreme level of maneuverability in making an incision. "These scalpels have already been demonstrated to deliver excellent performance during mastopexy, blepharoplasty, and abdominoplasty,” said Paul Dankers, general manager, Element Six.

Element Six is one of the world's leading producers of synthetic diamonds for industrial use. The company has pioneered the development of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamond technology, opening up many new applications outside the traditional abrasive uses of synthetic diamonds.
