Castroviejo Suturing Forceps 4.25" (in varying sizes; 0.12mm teeth, 0.3 mm teeth, and 0.5mm teeth) with tying platform

These forceps feature forward-angled teeth of various sizes which allows for grasping and manipulating tissues with greater ease. The handle is flat, and the forceps are straight with the tips forming the distal working end. These forceps are frequently used to work with finer tissue such as the conjunctiva or the eyelid skin during blepharoplasty.
