Product Overview
Millard Thumb Hook enables reconstructive plastic surgeons to manipulate fine facial tissues and align anatomical borders cleanly during cheiloplasty and rhinoplasty interventions. Featuring a miniature sharp-pointed hook and an ergonomic flat thumb-rest handle, it engages dermal margins gently without crushing fragile microvascular networks, preventing tissue devitalization while maintaining steady manual countertraction throughout intricate soft tissue dissection and closure.
Key Features:
• German stainless steel material provides corrosion-free strength
• Precision-curved sharp prong ensures positive tissue purchase without crushing margins
• Broad flat thumb rest delivers fine manual control and tactile maneuverability
• Slender low-profile shank preserves clear sightlines under surgical loupe magnification
Uses & Applications:

• Stabilizing delicate alar and columellar cartilage during open and closed rhinoplasty
• Providing gentle countertraction during facial flap mobilization and cosmetic wound closure
