SERATEX® SlimSling®
SERATEX® SlimSling®, a unique combination of suture material and textile implant. The aim of this implant was to mimic the properties of the body’s natural tissues as closely as possible.
SERATEX® SlimSling® is visible on MRI scans, and is available as a non-absorbable implant. The large pores allow tissue ingrowth and consequently the integration of the implant. When stretched, it gives in a controlled manner and returns to its original shape once the tension is released. The implant holds its shape even under lateral pressure.
