Surgical soft tissue forceps are specialized tools used during operations to grasp, hold, and manipulate soft tissues with minimal damage. They feature fine tips and a gentle grip to carefully handle delicate tissues.
There are two main types of surgical soft tissue forceps disposable and reusable. Disposable forceps are intended for single use, typically made from cost-effective materials suitable for one procedure, particularly in environments where hygiene and contamination are critical, such as sterile settings or surgeries involving infectious diseases. These forceps are used in hospitals, clinics, and other medical facilities. End users include professionals in gynecology, general surgery, neurosurgery, plastic surgery, and other fields.

The growth of the surgical soft tissue forceps market is expected to be driven by an increasing number of aesthetic procedures. These procedures, which aim to enhance physical appearance through elective medical treatments, whether surgical or non-surgical, have seen a rise due to societal beauty standards, greater accessibility, and the influence of social media. Surgical soft tissue forceps play a crucial role in such procedures by delicately handling and manipulating tissues, minimizing trauma, and ensuring precise placement during surgeries such as facelifts, rhinoplasties, and breast augmentations. For example, in March 2023, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons reported a significant increase in cosmetic surgeries in the UK, marking a notable 102% rise from 2021, with 31,057 procedures performed. This trend underscores the driving force behind the growth of the surgical soft tissue forceps market.
Leading companies in the surgical soft tissue forceps market are focusing on innovating new generations of disposable bipolar forceps to expand their market presence in surgical precision products. These disposable bipolar forceps are essential for grasping, holding, and maneuvering delicate tissues while minimizing adhesion and charring. For instance, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG received FDA 510(k) clearance in October 2022 for MTLawton, a new disposable bipolar forceps made from a special copper-base alloy. This material significantly reduces tissue adhesion and charring during electrosurgical procedures, enhancing cautery-based hemostasis. The forceps feature an extended shaft that improves visibility in the surgical field, providing a clearer view of the coagulation area and thereby improving efficiency in electrosurgical procedures.
