LION - Implanter - 5 pcs
The LION implanter is a sharp implanter: the loaded needle makes the recipient site and places the graft in a single movement. It is made by Hans Biomed and supplied in a box of five, sterile and ready for use on opening.
The needle is held by a clip, so it can be replaced without changing the instrument. Replacement needles are available separately in the same four sizes.
Sizes
- 0.64 mm
- 0.8 mm
- 1.0 mm
- 1.2 mm
The size to use follows from the graft rather than from the punch it was harvested with. The manufacturer publishes both the outer and the inner diameter of each needle, and it is the inner diameter that decides what fits: 0.51 mm for the 0.64, 0.65 mm for the 0.8, 0.86 mm for the 1.0 and 1.12 mm for the 1.2 (Hans Biomed). We looked at what the evidence says about matching sizes in our article on punch size and implanter needle size.
What we do not claim
We do not claim that this implanter gives better graft survival, less trauma, a higher success rate or better aesthetic results than other implanters or than forceps. No study has compared them. What is established, and what is not, is set out in our article on sharp or dull implanters.
