Quill Medical , Inc. Information

Quill Medical develops and commercializes innovative surgical products for wound closure and tissue management. These products, based on Quill's patented technology, enable surgical sutures to "self-anchor" in tissue without the need of a suture knot. Products that employ these designs are expected to be useful across a range of surgical applications covering the fields of general, orthopedic, cosmetic, vascular and endoscopic surgery. Quill Medical and Surgical Specialties Corporation, a leading provider of micro incision and wound closure technology, entered into an exclusive manufacturing and distribution alliance in the field of aesthetic surgery in October 2004. Under the alliance, Surgical Specialties will manufacture and market worldwide Quill Medical's suture technology for aesthetic surgery under the trade name Contour ThreadLift, a minimally-invasive product for lifting skin.
