description This article describes the adaptation of a micro-punch mandrel, which is usually used in hair transplants, in intraoperative markings. The mandrel was used as a wire for sterile toothpick handling in different surgical marking procedures, such as those in abdominoplasties, mammoplasties, and rhytidectomies. The use of this instrument offers a comfortable, affordable, precise, and low-cost tool for all types of surgical marking performed in plastic surgery. It is cheaper and more efficient than disposable pens.
