INTRODUCING PLANATOME BLADES: THE NEXT GENERATION OF SURGICAL PRECISION
Traditional surgical blades, while effective, can cause microscopic tissue trauma due to their less refined edges. Planatome has transformed surgical instruments by introducing nano-polished blades using proprietary technology derived from semiconductor manufacturing. This process creates an exceptionally smooth and precise cutting edge, resulting in cleaner incisions with minimal tissue damage.
REMARKABLE STUDY RESULTS: 86% REDUCTION IN HYPERTROPHIC SCARRING
A recent clinical study by Dr. Michael Sanchez and Dr. Frank Agullo examined the effects of Planatome blades on post-surgical scarring. The study involved 114 patients undergoing face and neck lift procedures—57 with conventional blades and 57 with Planatome’s nano-polished blades. The findings were nothing short of remarkable:
- 86% Reduction in Hypertrophic Scarring: Only 1.8% of patients treated with Planatome blades developed hypertrophic scars, compared to 12.3% with conventional blades.
- Superior Healing Outcomes: The precision of Planatome blades minimizes tissue trauma, promoting smoother wound edges and better overall healing.
These results highlight the critical role of precision and gentle tissue handling in surgical procedures, especially for patients prone to complicated wound healing and adverse scarring.
WHY THIS MATTERS TO YOU
Hypertrophic scars and keloids are more than cosmetic concerns—they can cause discomfort and emotional distress. Factors like skin tone, age, and hormonal changes can increase the risk of developing these excessive scars. By integrating Planatome blades into all surgical procedures, Dr. Agullo proactively reduces this risk, offering you peace of mind and a smoother recovery journey.
