Fiber Optic Plastic Surgery Instruments
Breast, abdominal and facial surgery often means working in deep, narrow pockets where overhead theatre lights cannot reach. Medfort fiber optic retractors carry light straight into the pocket through a built-in light guide, so the surgeon can see clearly without a headlight (codes PS-1301 to PS-1394).
Where they are used
They are used in breast augmentation and reduction, breast reconstruction, abdominoplasty, endoscopic-assisted brow and face lifts, submuscular dissection, and any procedure that works through a small incision into a deep space.
Our range
- Breast retractors: Biggs mammaplasty retractors, narrow or standard blade, with or without fiber optic light
- Facial and nasal: Aufricht retractor with fiber optic illumination
- Deep retractors: Deaver retractor with fiber optic illumination
- Ferriera style retractors: smooth end, double handle, in blade lengths from 110 to 220 mm
Material and finish
All instruments in this category are made from surgical grade stainless steel to AISI, ASTM and DIN standards, imported from Germany, Japan and France. Each piece is heat-treated to the right hardness for its job, then polished to a satin finish that reduces glare under theatre lights. Joints are fitted by hand so they move smoothly without play, and every instrument is checked before it is packed.
How to choose
Choose the blade length to match the depth of the pocket, and the blade width to match the incision. Retractors with fiber optic light connect to a standard light source and cable. If your theatre uses headlights, the non-illuminated versions of the same patterns are also available.
Quality control
Every Medfort instrument passes several checks before it leaves our workshop. We check the hardness after heat treatment, inspect jaws, teeth and serrations for correct alignment, test that ratchets lock and release smoothly, and look for any surface defects. Finished instruments are passivated to improve corrosion resistance, then cleaned, marked and packed.
Care and sterilization
Rinse instruments straight after use so blood and tissue do not dry on. Open all joints, then clean them by hand or in a washer-disinfector with a neutral pH detergent. Rinse, dry thoroughly and lubricate hinges with instrument milk. All items are suitable for standard steam sterilization (autoclave). Inspect them regularly, and repair or replace any that are worn or damaged.

Frequently asked questions
Which light cables fit these retractors? The light post accepts standard fiber optic cables. Tell us your light source brand and we will advise on the adapter.
Can the fiber optic retractors be autoclaved? Yes. The light guide is sealed, so the retractor can be cleaned and steam sterilized.
