Visipro™ is a monofilament non-absorbable surgical suture composed of a strand of polypropylene, a synthetic linear polyolefin with a fluorescent red dye.
Characteristics
- Easy suture visualization when exposed to a black light

Indications
Visipro™ suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological surgery.
Actions
Visipro™ suture elicits a minimal acute inflammatory reaction in tissues, which is followed by gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue.
