We offer Ethicon Vicryl J499G sutures that are fully absorbable and extremely soft. Vicryl is a synthetic material that is made mostly of polyglycolic acid. It is a trademark of the Ethicon brand, but it has become so prominent that the term has been used to refer to other suture brands that make use of similar polyglycolic acid structures in their products.
