Convex Curette Aesculap

AESCULAP HH119R CURETTE

The AESCULAP HH119R Curette is a professional instrument made of stainless steel, designed to scrape, clean or remove tissue from different areas of the body. It is particularly suitable for removing superficial skin lesions such as warts and keratoses prior to cauterisation.

It features a 2 mm diameter spoon-shaped tip, allowing precise work on localised areas. Its 9 cm ribbed hexagonal handle provides a firm and secure grip, helping to improve instrument control during use.

AESCULAP instruments are characterised by high manufacturing and precision standards. The combination of technology and manual craftsmanship produces surgical instruments with a high level of consistency, repeatability and uniform quality.

The curette is reusable and sterilisable. It is supplied non-sterile and must therefore be cleaned, disinfected and sterilised before first use and after each use.
