ETHILON® Sutures Guide

Learn about ETHILON® sutures, including nylon composition, handling characteristics, common surgical applications and skin closure performance.

Material Type

  • Nylon (Polyamide)
  • Monofilament
  • Synthetic
  • Non-Absorbable

Common Uses

  • Skin closure
  • Plastic surgery
  • Facial procedures
  • Dermatology
  • General surgery

Key Benefits

  • Minimal tissue reaction
  • Smooth tissue passage
  • Excellent cosmetic closure
  • Reliable wound support

What Are ETHILON® Sutures?

ETHILON® is a synthetic non-absorbable monofilament suture manufactured from nylon (polyamide). It is commonly used for skin closure and is widely selected for procedures requiring precise wound edge approximation and excellent cosmetic outcomes.

The monofilament construction helps minimise tissue drag and allows smooth passage through tissue. ETHILON® remains one of the most commonly used skin closure sutures across healthcare, cosmetic and veterinary settings.

Common Procedures

  • Skin closure
  • Facelift surgery
  • Blepharoplasty
  • Minor surgery procedures
  • Dermatology procedures
  • Veterinary skin closure

Advantages of ETHILON®

  • Low tissue reactivity
  • Excellent cosmetic closure
  • Smooth monofilament structure
  • Reliable knot security
  • Widely recognised material

ETHILON® Alternatives

Depending on the procedure, clinicians may consider PROLENE® for polypropylene monofilament closure, MONOCRYL® for absorbable cosmetic closure or PDS II® where longer-term absorbable wound support is required.
