Scarless Surgery - minimally invasive surgery

Scarless surgery

 ALPHADUR^®– GIMMI GmbH presents a new dimension in minimally invasive surgery / a Medica 2005 world innovation / surgery with insignificant scarring and maximum pain reduction / highest patient comfort

GIMMI GmbH, a specialist in endoscopy and laparoscopy, introduces their ALPHADUR^® range - a whole new generation of instruments for minimally invasive surgery. The ALPHADUR^® instrumentation allows operations leaving no cosmetically significant scars while achieving best possible pain reduction.

With the use of ALPHADUR^®, defined micro incisions can be made in laparoscopic operations without leaving behind cosmetically significant scars. Examples for applications include abdominal adhesions, inguinal hernias, cholecystectomies and appendectomies. However, ALPHADUR^® products not only offer visual benefits. As the new instruments do not cut through the muscle tissue, but merely displace it, the surgeon can obtain significant postoperative pain reduction for the patient.

Based on the novel ceramic titanium composite, also used in aviation and motor sports, ALPHADUR^® micro instruments remain extremely stable despite their small diameter. In addition, the ergonomically formed handles allow precise working while being gentle to tissue.
