Soft, flexible material for atraumatic implantation.
Efficient & precise
Optimises the implantation process for the best possible results.
Five benefits of using HydroCone™
For surgeons and for postoperative patient safety.
No-touch delivery
HydroCone™ reduces the risk of postoperative complications by minimising direct implant contact. Studies with funnel / no-touch technique observed a significantly reduced capsular contracture rate (up to 54%).
Reduced operating time
Easy insertion distributes the force applied to the implant. The process becomes faster and more efficient for surgeons.
Smaller incision, smaller scar
The delivery aid allows smaller incision sizes, resulting in smaller, cosmetically more favourable scars.
Reduced tissue stress
Reduces stress on the breast implant (lowering rupture risk) and spares patient tissue.
Versatile use
Compatible with all GC Aesthetics silicone implants. Suitable for various surgical approaches and breast characteristics.
Lifetime warranty
for the patient's lifetime

Use in four steps
How to Use, for surgeons.
Hydrate
The delivery aid is moistened with a sterile solution to enable sliding delivery of the implant.
Load
The implant is loaded into the delivery aid. For round implants such as PERLE® directly from the packaging. For anatomical implants such as LUNA XT™ the correct orientation is manually placed.
Trim
The delivery aid has a trim line to adjust the opening size depending on volume and implant type (textured or shaped).
Propel
The implant is gently propelled through the delivery aid into the surgically prepared breast pocket.
