PIFFARD DERMAL CURETTE SIZE 1 NARROW HANDLE OVAL 3mm TIP 5 1/2″

PIFFARD DERMAL CURETTE SIZE 1 NARROW HANDLE OVAL 3mm TIP 5 1/2″
A 3 mm working end gives D-199-104 a clear role within the Piffard dermal curette series. This model is identified as a size 1 curette with a narrow handle, oval 3 mm tip, and 5 1/2-inch overall length. The configuration provides a broader working option than the size 00, size 0, and 2 mm models while retaining the same narrow-handle format.
For clinicians, the useful distinction is not simply that this is a Piffard curette. The 3 mm diameter determines where the instrument sits within a graduated selection. The oval working end provides the scraping surface, and the narrow handle keeps the instrument’s profile consistent with other fine Piffard models. This makes D-199-104 easy to identify when preparing a tray containing several dermatology instruments with similar appearances.
Selection points:
* Size 1 pattern: Gives the instrument a specific Piffard size designation for straightforward identification.
* 3 mm oval tip: Provides a defined working diameter for curettage where this size is appropriate.
* Narrow handle: Maintains a slim grip profile and direct relationship between the hand and working end.
* 5 1/2-inch length: Supplies a clear overall measurement for procurement, storage, and tray organization.
* Graduated-series compatibility: Its 3 mm position makes it distinct from the smaller 1 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2 mm models and the larger 5 mm version.
D-199-104 is a practical choice when a procedure set calls for a 3 mm Piffard curette rather than a smaller or broader working end. Its size-specific construction also makes inventory matching easier when replacement instruments are ordered. Add this size 1 model to a curettage set where a 3 mm oval tip is required.
