Why Choose Ethicon Prolene Sutures?
Superior Handling & Knot Security

Versatile Surgical Use
Ethicon Prolene sutures are suitable for cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and plastic surgery procedures, where long-term tensile strength and minimal tissue reactivity are critical.
High Tensile Strength & Long-Term Support<>As non-absorbable sutures, Prolene sutures retain their tensile strength over time, maintaining wound closure integrity and reducing the risk of dehiscence, even in challenging conditions.
Minimal Tissue Reaction
Made from an inert synthetic material, Ethicon Prolene sutures provoke minimal inflammation, supporting smoother healing and improved patient outcomes.
Enhanced Visibility
Available in blue or clear, these sutures provide excellent visibility against tissue, enabling accurate placement and reducing the risk of suture loss during procedures.
