HATE Suction Elevator – 3 mm, Blue Handle

The HATE 3 mm suction elevator is a German-made suction dissector with a hollow 3 mm shaft and elevating tip, mounted on an ergonomic blue handle with a ribbed grip and finger grooves. It lifts and dissects tissue while removing blood and fluid at the same time, keeping the operative field clear.

What Is a 3 mm Suction Elevator?

A suction elevator combines two instruments in one: an elevator that separates tissue planes, and a suction cannula that removes blood and fluid. In rhinoplasty and septal surgery, bleeding can quickly hide the anatomy. With a suction elevator, the surgeon can keep dissecting while the field is cleared, without switching instruments.

The 3 mm size is marked on the handle for quick identification. The blue handle is lightweight and has finger grooves at the end for a secure, comfortable grip.

Clinical Uses of the 3 Mm Suction Elevator

The 3 mm suction elevator is suitable for:

• Dissection of the nasal dorsum and septum in rhinoplasty and septoplasty.
• Subperiosteal and submucoperichondrial elevation.
• Clearing blood during dissection in facial plastic surgery.
• ENT procedures where a clear view is essential.

Why Use a Suction Elevator?

In facial and nasal surgery, the working space is small and bleeding quickly hides the anatomy. Using a separate suction tube and elevator means constant switching and less control. A suction dissector does both jobs in one hand: it lifts the tissue and removes blood at the same moment. This saves time, keeps the dissection plane visible and frees the other hand for retraction or palpation.

How to Use the 3 Mm Suction Elevator

1. Connect the handle to the suction tubing.
2. Place the tip in the dissection plane and elevate the tissue with gentle, controlled strokes.
3. Cover the suction control opening if present to adjust suction strength.
4. Flush the lumen with water regularly during long procedures to prevent blockage.
