The Hook Retractor is a 16.5 cm handheld surgical instrument designed for delicate skin flap elevation and superficial wound margin exposure.

Product Description
The Hook Retractor is a foundational handheld surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide precise, non-slip skin flap elevation and superficial wound margin exposure across general, plastic, and reconstructive procedures. Designed with curved hook prongs, this instrument allows surgeons to grasp cutaneous and subcutaneous layers securely without crushing fragile tissue margins.
Built for complete procedural adaptability, this Hook Retractor maintains a uniform total length frame of 16.5 cm that provides balanced manual control and refined tactile feedback. The instrument is highly customizable across four prong combinations: 1 Prong (Single Prong, $14), 2 Prongs ($16), 3 Prongs ($18), and 4 Prongs ($20). Surgeons can select either Sharp tips for firm, slip-free dermal purchase or Blunt tip styles to minimize structural trauma on sensitive soft tissue layers and vascular planes. The ergonomic flat handle ensures fatigue-free manual leverage for operating assistants.
Machined from medical-grade surgical stainless steel with a reflection-free satin matte finish, Retractor Maker produces the Hook Retractor to withstand repetitive hospital sterilization cycles, delivering high corrosion resistance, unyielding structural rigidity, and complete autoclave durability for operating rooms and outpatient clinics worldwide.
