  Dr. Joseph Hunstad of Charlotte, NC is the first surgeon in the region to use TissuGlu® Surgical Adhesive, a new FDA-approved surgical adhesive.

  Pittsburgh, PA /PRNewswire/ - As part of TissuGlu® Surgical Adhesive's U.S.commercial launch this week, Cohera Medical, Inc. ® is announcing Dr.Joseph Hunstad, board-certified plastic surgeon and co-founder of Hunstad Kortesis Plastic Surgery + MedSpa located in Charlotte, North Carolina, is the first surgeon in his region to perform a commercial procedure using TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive, the only FDA-approved synthetic lysine-based urethane adhesive for internal approximation of tissue in abdominoplasty.

  Now commercially available in select cities, TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive is the first FDA-approved synthetic surgical adhesive for internal usage and currently approved for sale in the U.S.

  The breakthrough technology is ten times stronger than fibrin-based sealants, TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive is strong, biocompatible and easy to use. Since TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive is a clinically proven alternative to post-operative drains, patients can now undergo an abdominoplasty, also known as tummy tuck, procedure without drains and added scars.

  "Patients are less hesitant about an abdominoplasty procedure using TissuGlu. We hear so many patients who worry about recovery time and drain pain.TissuGlu allows patients to get back to normal activities sooner. We are excited to bring this technology to the patient population," said Patrick Daly,President and CEO of Cohera Medical.

  Dr. Hunstad extended his industry expertise throughout the development of TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive. "I was proud to participate in the TissuGlu Surgical Adhesive investigational study before it received FDA approval, and now having it as part of my practice, I'm excited to see it create improved outcomes for my patients and those even considering abdominoplasty," said Dr. Hunstad.

  "Not having the drains impacted my decision to use TissuGlu. I felt less anxiety about the procedure and recovery time," said Jaycee (patient–two weeks after surgery).
