Chirafix Suture 2/0, HR26, 23 cm. Box 12 units. (needle 1/2 round body circle)

Chirafix is a suture designed to ensure an effective and safe closure of surgical wounds. Its round body needle and semicircular shape is highly sharp and resistant, which allows it to pierce tissues smoothly and fluidly, even those of greater hardness. Its thread, made of polydioxanone, has small barbs all over its surface, ensuring optimal and lasting adhesion. All of this, combined with its ability to be naturally reabsorbed in a short period of time, make it the ideal candidate for internal surgical sutures.

General Features
- Absorbable Formula: it is made with polydioxanone (PDO), a synthetic material that naturally breaks down in about 6 months of use
- Smooth Insertion: it comes with a round body circular needle that penetrates tissues with utmost precision, even in those of greater hardness
- High Adhesion: the thread has small barbs designed to adhere more firmly to the skin, ensuring an effective and lasting suture
- Knotless Manufacturing: it has a stop at the end that has been tested under the USP standard and allows suturing without making initial ligatures
