HATE Gorney Facelift v2 – Curved Facelift Scissors

The HATE Gorney facelift scissors v2 are German-made curved dissecting scissors designed for precise undermining and dissection of skin flaps in facelift and plastic surgery. The curved blades follow the natural contour of the face and neck, giving the surgeon smooth, controlled cuts through subcutaneous tissue.

What Are Gorney Facelift Scissors?

Gorney facelift scissors are a classic pattern of curved operating scissors for facial plastic surgery. They are used to separate the skin from the deeper layers of the face and neck during rhytidectomy, a step known as undermining. The curve and length let the surgeon work through a small incision while keeping the blade tips parallel to the skin surface, for an even, controlled dissection plane.

You can read more about the facelift procedure on the American Society of Plastic Surgeons website.

Features of the HATE Gorney Facelift v2

• Curved blades: follow tissue planes for smooth, accurate undermining of skin flaps.
• Gold-finish handles: make the scissors easy to identify on the instrument tray.
• Precision screw joint: smooth, even blade action from the joint to the tips.
• Balanced finger rings: comfortable control during long procedures.
• Made in Germany: manufactured by HATE to German surgical instrument standards.
• Reusable: can be cleaned and autoclaved between procedures.

Why Surgeons Choose Gorney Facelift Scissors

Facelift dissection demands precision over a wide area through a limited incision. Straight scissors make it hard to stay in the right plane, while short curved scissors cannot reach far enough. Gorney facelift scissors combine length with a gentle curve, so the surgeon can sweep under the skin of the cheek and neck in long, even strokes. The result is a uniform flap thickness and less risk of damage to deeper structures.

Clinical Uses

• Facelift (rhytidectomy) and SMAS procedures
• Neck lift and platysmaplasty
• Skin flap undermining in plastic and reconstructive surgery
• General soft tissue dissection

How to Use the Gorney Facelift Scissors

1. Inspect: check the blades for nicks and test that the action is smooth before use.
2. Hold: place the thumb and ring finger in the rings and steady the shanks with the index finger.
3. Dissect: keep the curve facing the skin surface and use spreading and cutting strokes to develop the dissection plane.
4. Close carefully: close the blades fully before withdrawing them from the incision.

Cleaning and Sterilization

Rinse the scissors straight after use, with the blades open, to stop blood and tissue drying in the joint. Clean them with a soft brush or an ultrasonic cleaner, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Lubricate the joint with an instrument lubricant suitable for steam sterilization, then autoclave according to your facility’s validated protocol. Have the blades professionally sharpened when the cut is no longer clean.
