McKissock Breast Marker

Description

McKissock Breast Marker

The McKissock breast marker outlines the new areola before a reduction or lift. Ink applied along its rim leaves a clean, round guide on the skin.

Four diameters

We offer 38, 42, 45 and 50 mm. The surgeon picks the size that matches the planned result. Also, a consistent template helps both sides match.

Where the McKissock breast marker fits

Plastic surgeons use it during pre-operative marking. It suits the vertical bipedicle method that bears the McKissock name. Many teams stock two sizes.

Marking tips

Hold the ring steady with light pressure. Then trace with a fine skin marker. Finally, check symmetry before the first incision, since small differences grow once tissue is removed.

Planning symmetry

Mark the sternal notch and midline first. Then place the marker on each side at the same height. Because the ring is rigid, both outlines come out the same size, which helps the final result look balanced.

After marking

Wipe off ink with an alcohol pad. Clean and dry the ring before sterilising. Then store it flat so it stays round.

Why we protect each marker

Ahead of packing, our Atlanta crew checks this marker one at a time. Our guarantee for the McKissock pattern spans three years against manufacturing defects on each piece. For details on instrument steels, check ASTM F899. For a sister pattern, check the Freeman areola markers. The buyer FAQ covers the ordering steps. Visit the rest of our general surgery catalog for other sizes. A second marker in stores covers reprocessing gaps. We will happily check sizes for your facility.
