The Endotine device was designed to effectively fix the scalp tissue efficiently in thread-like stitches; the polymer consists of the blending of polylactic and polyglycolic acids in the ratio 82:18. A similar relative form is called Ultratine 1, in which the degrading polymer has a faster decomposition process to provide lower palpability and neuropathy to patients. Endotine maintains high strength over time, but Ultratine loses 90% of that in 60 days, so it is preferred by patients who could use quicker absorption. They each come in three sizes in order to accommodate a variety of surgeries.

The Endotine TransBleph offers a simplified method of rejuvenating the upper eyelids, reflecting an ability to offer concurrent removal of redundant eyelid skin as well as the simultaneous redraping of the brow through just a single, upper blepharoplasty incision. This does away with endoscopic machinery and makes it easy to set up, and minimizes the time of surgery. Perfect for patients who need simultaneous blepharoplasty and brow lift, it is accompanied by an insertion device and pre-loaded implant drill bit to simplify its insertion.

Endotine Midface is a modern, absorbable device that offers secure multi-point suspension of midface structures. By removing so-called traditional sutures, this implant streamlines the procedure of soft tissue elevation by means of five evenly spaced tines that evenly disperse tension and optimize fixing power.

It is designed to be fast to deploy, by using small temporal or oral incisions to reduce operative time and improve efficiency of the procedure. Pre-packaged and immediately implanted, the Endotine Midface is able to provide a rapid, adaptable, and sure solution in midface rejuvenation.

Endotine Ribbon is a closed 3 or 5 point fixation using a lower-face endotine and is used in neck lifts, jowl lifts or full-face lifts. The amount of versatility that it has is priceless, as the surgeon can use either a minimally invasive or open technique while adjusting the lift vector as well as the level of lift based on the needs of the patient.

The technique of preparing this bioabsorbable implant is fast and uncomplicated, with small surgical pain in minimizing surgical workflow and improving esthetic results. The Ribbon has the versatility to be used in long or short form, and can be trimmed to fit. The Ribbon provides reliable support reproducing gorgeous cervicofacial definition and all, with greater efficacy and less operating time.
