ABSTRACT:
A surgical handle according to the present invention accommodates a plurality of surgical implements used in hair transplantation procedures. In particular, the surgical handle accommodates both surgical mini-blades having a generally flat shape and surgical punches having a generally cylindrical shape. The handle includes a chucking mechanism for removably receiving different shaped surgical implements. The chucking mechanism includes an elongated lengthwise slot for receiving the mini-blades and a cylindrical central bore for receiving cylindrical surgical implements. The handle according to the present invention avoids the necessity of having different handles to accommodate different implements which are used in a single hair transplantation procedure.
