Abstract: System for delivering an implant to tissue to be treated which includes a housing, a delivery head which carries the implant and is movable between extended and retracted positions relative to the housing, an actuator mounted in the housing and connected to the delivery head for moving the delivery head from the retracted position to the extended position and back to the retracted position, and a depth gauge mounted to the housing for determining how far the implant is inserted into the tissue when the delivery head is moved to the extended position.
