Fastlak – Fast Absorbable Octoplasty and Orbital Surgical Suture is a flexible, synthetic, absorbable and sterile surgical thread consisting of a copolymer synthesized from 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide (glycolic and lactic acid derivatives). Fastlak, the empirical formula of copolymer (Co2H2O₂)m (C3H4O2)n, offers high durability and easy knotting with its multiplying structure. This structure, which is obtained by woven fiberglass together, provides the ideal solution for tissue-compatible and sensitive surgeries. Fastlak, which meets the need for rapid absorption in oculoplasty and orbital surgery, stands out with minimal tissue reaction and effective healing process.
