No. Using conventional scalpel blades as our blanks, Planatome® has adapted atomic-level polishing from the manufacturing of advanced microchips which they use to create atomically smooth surgical blades.
Planatome® blades are single use, disposable, sterile blades that give surgeons the performance of diamond or obsidian blades but at a far less expensive price point.
Data has shown that surgeons using Planatome® blades see less soft tissue damage at the incision, less closing resistance, cleaner margins, and fewer complications. Their patients experience less inflammation, less pain and see faster healing with less scarring.
Planatome® blades can be purchased from our website (coming soon). In addition, we can provide additional information or sample here.
Planatome® blades were designed to promote better surgical outcomes. The blades have the performance of diamond and obsidian blades but are far less expensive. The blades are registered for use in the US by the FDA and have recently been adopted for use by several hospitals.
Yes. Planatome® blades are currently in use by surgeons in the fields of plastic, orthopedic and ob/gyn surgery. The blades have recently been adopted for use in several hospitals.

Better ergonomics – ease of use to create incision; good feel, clean incision. Clean incision is a better cut. More durable means using fewer blades. As an example, I performed a bilateral thigh lift with one Planatome vs 3-4 standard scalpels. It’s a paradigm shift on how you use a blade.

Love the precision and consistency of the Planatome blades. Precision is the key to Aesthetic Surgery and the consistency helps to minimize the patient to patient variation we see in our practice. Definitely get less bleeding which help my visibility in creating intricate incisions on the eyelid.
