Description:
Healthium Trusilk is a non-absorbable, braided silk suture designed for general surgical use requiring precise soft tissue approximation and ligation. Made from natural silk fibers coated with a silicone or wax-based compound, Trusilk offers superior handling, excellent knot security, and smooth tissue passage. Though not absorbable, it gradually loses tensile strength over time due to proteolytic enzymatic degradation. It is commonly used in general, dental, ophthalmic, and skin closure procedures.
