FAQ's

What is silk braided suture used for?

Silk braided sutures are known for their excellent tensile strength and flexibility, making them ideal for a variety of surgical procedures. They are often used in general surgeries, ophthalmic surgeries, and plastic surgeries, as they provide reliable support and a secure knot tie. The MacSuture 3-0, 18 inch Silk Black Braided Suture offers superior handling characteristics and reduced tissue reactivity, making it suitable for delicate tissue repairs. Surgeons can trust MacSuture to deliver high-quality silk sutures that promote effective healing while ensuring ease of use during procedures.

What are the advantages of using silk sutures?

Silk sutures have several advantages, including excellent tensile strength, ease of handling, and the ability to provide a secure knot. They also have minimal tissue reactivity, which makes them suitable for sensitive areas. The MacSuture 3-0, 18 inch Silk Black Braided Suture features a braided structure that enhances flexibility and adaptability during surgical procedures. This suture type is particularly useful in applications where long-term support is required. With MacSuture, you receive silk sutures designed for optimal performance and reliability, ensuring a smooth surgical experience.

Is silk suture absorbable?

No, silk sutures are not absorbable; they are classified as non-absorbable sutures. This means they provide long-term support in the tissue until they are removed or until they lose their effectiveness due to degradation. The MacSuture 3-0, 18 inch Silk Black Braided Suture is designed to maintain its strength over time, making it ideal for procedures where prolonged support is necessary. If you need reliable, durable sutures that ensure effective wound closure, choose MacSuture for high-quality silk sutures that deliver consistent results.

What is the difference between silk and synthetic sutures?

The primary difference between silk and synthetic sutures lies in their material composition and absorption properties. Silk sutures are made from natural fibers and are non-absorbable, providing lasting support for longer periods. Synthetic sutures, such as those made from polyglactin or nylon, can be either absorbable or non-absorbable. The MacSuture 3-0, 18 inch Silk Black Braided Suture is designed for optimal handling and performance, while synthetic sutures may offer different characteristics in terms of absorption and strength. With MacSuture, you can choose the right suture type to meet your surgical needs, whether you prefer natural or synthetic materials.

What are the common uses of silk sutures?

Silk sutures are commonly used in various surgical applications, including general surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, and gynecology. They are particularly effective for suturing skin, fascia, and other soft tissues due to their excellent tensile strength and ease of handling. The MacSuture 3-0, 18 inch Silk Black Braided Suture is an ideal choice for procedures that require secure and durable closure.
