ABOUT
BARRIGEL
The sculptable rectal spacer
That gives you effective and proven control over the shape and placement of the implant.6
THE BARRIGEL ADVANTAGE¹
THE BARRIGEL
ADVANTAGE¹
Physician Controlled
With Barrigel, YOU are in control. Visualize how much space you’re creating in real time and customize the implant to each patient’s anatomy.
No Injection Limit
Take your time building a symmetrical, even implant. Achieve symmetry laterally and full coverage from apex to base.Sculptable Gel
Sculpt, layer, and add more gel where needed, to optimize protection of the organ at risk.Highly Visible
Hypoechoic properties ensure high visibility on TRUS imaging for a clear view of Barrigel as you sculpt the implant in real-time.
