Controlled Dissection with Practical Access and Handling

Potts-Smith dissecting scissors are 7 1/4-inch surgical scissors designed for dissecting tasks where a curved blade profile, blunt tips, and ring handle support controlled instrument handling. The curved blades can help maintain a practical working angle and visibility while navigating the operative field, while blunt tips are suited to workflows that call for a less pointed blade end. The ring handle provides a familiar grip for measured opening and closing during routine instrument use. Appropriate for general surgery and plastic surgery applications, this specialty-neutral design supports careful dissection and tissue separation across varied procedural workflows.

Use Cases

• Perform controlled dissecting cuts during general surgery workflows.
• Support tissue dissection and trimming tasks in plastic surgery procedures.
• Use the curved blades when a practical angled approach is helpful within the operative field.
• Handle routine dissection work through the ring handle for familiar instrument control.
