  • Patent number: 5662661
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for surgical cutting of strips of scalp into multiple calibrated hair grafts, of identical small size. The device has a blade holder designed to allow vertical positioning of multiple parallel and equidistant blades, so that the cutting edges of said blades are aligned in one and the same horizontal plane, these blades then projecting from a support surface, and a plate of flexible material is intended to be placed flush with the cutting edges of the blades and is associated with an applicator associated with retention or abutment and, if appropriate, guide means making it possible to apply or press this plate onto the cutting edges of the blades, parallel to said support surface, while ensuring that this plate does not move beyond a limit position set at a distance from the support surface which is greater than the thickness of the strips for which the surgical cutting device is intended.
