Description
Coronal Lift Retractor 6 Prongs Blade Width
The coronal lift retractor holds the scalp flap back during an open brow lift. Its 150 mm blade carries six sharp prongs that grip the flap along a wide front.
A longer handle
At 20 cm, it is slightly longer than many scalp rakes. So the assistant can stand further from the head. In addition, the extra length adds leverage on a heavy flap.
Blade of the coronal lift retractor
Six prongs sit across a 150 mm width. As a result, pull spreads evenly along the incision. Meanwhile, the flap edge stays straight instead of bunching.
When surgeons use it
Coronal brow lifts and hairline lifts use it often. For instance, it holds the forehead flap while the surgeon releases the brow. It also helps in some craniofacial approaches.
Compared with the Yancoskie
Both rakes share the 150 mm, six-prong layout. However, this one is 2 cm longer. Some teams therefore keep one of each for the two sides of the table.
Handling
Seat the prongs under the galea and lift smoothly. Next, hold steady while the surgeon dissects. Finally, release slowly to avoid tearing the flap edge.
