Description
The LOOK 442B PolySyn suture combines a 3-0 braided polyglycolic acid strand with a C7 reverse cutting needle for reliable soft-tissue approximation across a range of clinical procedures. Polyglycolic acid is a synthetic absorbable material that provides predictable tensile strength retention during the initial healing phase before being broken down by hydrolysis — eliminating the need for suture removal. The 3/8-circle needle geometry facilitates controlled passage through tissue in confined surgical fields.
