The Galvao Nipple Marker is a specialized plastic surgery marking instrument designed for controlled preoperative marking of the nipple and areola during breast surgery. Available in 40 mm and 50 mm diameter options, the marker provides surgeons with two defined sizing choices for breast reconstruction, mastopexy, breast reduction, augmentation planning, and related procedures.

The current Peak Surgicals listing identifies the instrument as manufactured from J2 German stainless steel with a polished surface and lightweight ergonomic configuration. SKU PS-MH-0034 provides a clear reference for ordering and inventory identification.

40mm and 50mm Diameter Options

The Galvao Nipple Marker is available in 40 mm and 50 mm diameter options. These two sizes allow the surgeon to select a marking diameter according to the planned procedure, patient anatomy, and operative approach.

The selected diameter should be determined by the operating surgeon during preoperative planning rather than assuming one size is appropriate for every procedure.

Nipple and Areola Surgical Marking

The instrument is intended for nipple and areola marking before or during breast surgery. Its circular marking profile provides a defined reference that can assist the surgeon when planning the position or outline of the nipple-areola complex.

The marker can be used in conjunction with standard surgical marking ink, as stated on the current product page. The exact marking technique should follow the surgeon's established operative protocol.

Breast Reconstruction Applications

The current product information specifically references nipple and areola reconstruction. In reconstructive breast surgery, a dedicated marker can provide a consistent circular reference during planning and surgical marking.

The instrument itself does not determine final nipple position, areola size, or postoperative appearance. Those decisions remain dependent on surgical planning, patient anatomy, and the procedure being performed.

Mastopexy and Breast Reduction

The Galvao Nipple Marker is also listed for mastopexy and breast reduction procedures. During these procedures, the marker may be used as part of preoperative planning when defining the intended nipple-areola complex.

Selection of the 40 mm or 50 mm version should be based on the surgeon's operative plan and preferred marking dimensions.

Breast Augmentation Planning

Breast augmentation is another application referenced on the current product page. The Galvao marker may be incorporated into surgical planning when the surgeon requires a defined reference for nipple or areola positioning.

The instrument is a marking aid and should not be interpreted as determining implant position, surgical outcome, or final breast symmetry.

J2 German Stainless Steel Construction

The live product description identifies the Galvao Nipple Marker as manufactured from J2 German stainless steel. This material provides a rigid reusable instrument structure suitable for professional plastic surgery environments.

The product page also references repeated sterilization. Reprocessing should follow applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated cleaning and sterilization procedures.

Polished Surface

The marker is listed with a smooth polished surface. This finish provides a clean working surface for contact with the skin during surgical marking and supports routine instrument cleaning.

The surface should be inspected before use for visible contamination, damage, deformation, corrosion, or other changes that could affect the marking edge or instrument function.

Lightweight Ergonomic Design

The current product information describes the instrument as lightweight and ergonomic. This configuration is intended to support controlled manual positioning when placing the marker over the planned nipple or areola location.

Exact instrument weight and handle dimensions are not specified on the current product page.
