Surgical Skin Hooks

Surgical skin hooks are fine retraction instruments used to gently lift and hold skin edges during delicate procedures, especially in plastic, dermatological and reconstructive surgery. Healermed Instruments manufactures single, double and multi-prong skin hooks in German stainless steel with sharp, precise points.

Quick guide: single-prong hooks give the finest control on a small skin edge; double and multi-prong hooks spread the hold across more tissue.

Common Types of Skin Hooks

Single-Prong Hook Precise retraction of a single skin edge.
Double-Prong Hook Wider, balanced hold for fine retraction.
Joseph Skin Hook Popular fine hook for plastic and facial surgery.
Gillies / Guthrie Hook Sharp hooks for delicate skin handling.
