Forceps (Tweezer)

At Surgins, Tweezers (Forceps) also known as thumb forceps, pinning forceps, spring forceps are an extension of our fingers used by compression between your thumb and forefinger which allow us to grab, grip, place, remove or hold items that are too small or delicate for our fingers to manipulate.

These instruments with fine, pointed tips that allow precise grasping of delicate tissues with minimal damage. They are non-ratchet style. For example, you could use thumb forceps to hold or move tissue during surgery or to move dressings.

Simple pincers made of two arms joined at one end.

Slant-tip or pointed-tip tweezers (for eyebrow grooming, electronics, etc.)
