Why Evita Clinic Uses Antibacterial Sutures Certified by Johnson & Johnson
At Evita Clinic, patient safety and infection prevention are always our top priorities—especially during and after surgery. One of the most common concerns among surgical patients is infection or inflammation at the surgical site. While many factors can contribute to post-operative infection—including the patient’s general health, the surgeon’s technique, the cleanliness of the environment, surgical duration, and appropriate use of antibiotics—Evita Clinic goes one step further.
We Use WHO-Recommended Antibacterial Sutures
To minimize even the smallest risks, we use premium antibacterial-coated sutures that are recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO guideline). These sutures are coated with a special antibacterial agent that helps prevent surgical site infections (SSI), one of the most critical complications following surgery.
Official Certification by Johnson & Johnson
Evita Clinic has been officially certified by Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices as a recognized institution that uses their antibacterial suture line. Johnson & Johnson’s “Plus Sutures” are absorbable and antibacterial, and are used worldwide to reduce post-operative infection risks. These sutures are particularly effective in procedures that involve large or deep incisions, such as:
- Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
- Top Surgery (FTM/Chest Masculinization)
- Gynecomastia Surgery (Male Breast Reduction)
- Breast Augmentation or Reduction
For these surgeries, the use of absorbable antibacterial sutures is essential because the inner layers of tissue cannot be re-cleaned or sterilized after closure. This is why we use only high-quality sutures with proven antibacterial protection, even though they come at a higher cost.
Small Details, Big Protection
Using antibacterial sutures may seem like a small detail, but they provide significant protection during the healing phase. At Evita Clinic, we believe that a safe recovery starts with smart choices during surgery—and that includes the materials we use.
If you’re considering surgery at our clinic, you can be confident knowing that we use the safest and most advanced suture materials available, following global standards of care.
