Utah Medical’s OptiMicro Needle Electrodes are ultra-fine tip electrosurgical electrodes designed to provide precise dissection without adverse thermal effects to yield excellent cosmetic results for small-scale procedures.

These micro-needles have the finest geometry available. Due to their extremely small surface area, a focused spark plasma is created at very low power settings.

The 8cm-long clinician-requested additions to the OptiMicro range provide the additional reach required during some Head and Neck procedures: The DN-0800, with a 3mm cutting tip, is ideal for dissection during adult tonsillectomy and in some nasal cavity surgeries.

The DN-0810 is designed with a 10mm uninsulated tip for effective thermal tissue reduction during turbinate and adenoid reduction surgeries.

• Thermal tissue injury is virtually eliminated, allowing for excellent healing results
• Output power settings are very low, minimising nerve and muscle cell stimulation and stray electrosurgical currents
• Tungsten electrode withstands high current densities, and maintains sharpness throughout procedure
• Substantially reduces smoke plume and odour compared to standard blade geometry tips
• Exceptional performance at low power settings
• Addition of 8cm-long electrodes to range provides additional reach required by some Head and Neck procedures
