Keller Medical manufactures the Keller Funnel — a cone-shaped, lubricated plastic funnel used during breast augmentation or reconstruction procedures, according to a news release.

Surgeons use the funnel to guide silicone gel implants into the surgical pocket. The device allows surgeons to use a “no-touch” technique, which may reduce the amount of bacteria exposed to the implant.
