Keller funnel (breast implant)
A single-use, cone-shaped device made of slippery material, designed to introduce the breast implant through a reduced incision without the prosthesis contacting the skin.
How it is used
Used in breast augmentation to apply the 'no-touch' insertion technique, reducing the risk of bacterial contamination and capsular contracture.
Clinical tip
It also allows the implant to be inserted through shorter incisions than direct manual insertion would require.
