Benefits of the Parker Retractor Set:

• Secure, Non-Slip Grip: The fine serration on the blunt tip provides an excellent grip on the skin or mucosa and prevents slipping even under wet or bloody surgical conditions.
• Atraumatic Skin Retraction: The tips are blunt and do not injure the epidermis, while the serration minimizes the required pressure, preventing crushing.
• Ideal Wound Edge Adaptation: Enables precise and symmetrical retraction of wound edges for exact, tension-free, and cosmetically superior suturing.
• Standard in Dermatological Surgery: An indispensable basic set for skin excisions, biopsies, and plastic closures in dermatology, plastic surgery, and general surgery.
