Blossom™ IVTE
The GC Aesthetics® Blossom™ Integrated Valve Tissue Expander (IVTE) is designed for temporary subcutaneous implantation in breast reconstruction procedures. It requires periodic, incremental inflation with sterile saline solution until the desired tissue expansion is achieved. Developed to support staged reconstruction, it combines integrated valve technology with controlled expansion to facilitate predictable surgical planning and outcomes.
Science
and Technology
Blossom™ IVTE must be filled with a sterile isotonic saline solution only. A 21-gauge standard needle is then inserted percutaneously into the port of the expander and the saline is then infused into the expander to inflate it to moderate skin tension. GCA® offers volumes between 200cc and 800cc to cover surgeon's needs.
