Controlled Retraction for Facelift and Surgical Access

The Biggs facelift (Rhytidectomy) retractor is a hand-held surgical retractor designed to support tissue retraction and maintain access during facelift procedures and other appropriate operative tasks. Its 8-inch length provides useful reach, while the 51.0 mm wide blade presents a broad retraction surface for organized field management. The round handle supports straightforward manual positioning and adjustment during use. Within General Surgery and Plastic Surgery workflows, this retractor can help keep the operative area accessible while supporting careful tissue handling and visualization. Its named facelift design makes it a practical choice for teams seeking a dedicated retraction instrument for rhytidectomy-related work.
