When it comes to pre-op care, every step matters. One of the most overlooked—but critical—steps is hair removal. Using the right surgical razor blades can make all the difference in the safety and success of your procedure. At Livingstone International, we recognise that thorough preparation reduces infection risks and enhances outcomes. That’s why we offer high-quality Surgical Preparation Body Razors designed to deliver clean, safe, and efficient results every time.

Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the best surgical razor blades for your medical or clinical setup.
Why Surgical Razor Blades Matter
Before any surgical procedure, skin prep is key. Removing body hair helps reduce bacterial buildup and lowers the risk of postoperative infection. But not just any razor will do. You need surgical-grade razors that are sharp, sterile, and designed for sensitive skin.
Our LIV Shaving Prep Razors are double-edged, disposable, and come with a comfortable 90mm handle. These are made to give you control and precision, without compromising safety.
Know Your Procedure Needs
Not all procedures require the same level of prep. Some only need a quick trim, while others demand complete area shaving. That’s why you need to choose surgical razor blades that match your routine:
- For general preoperative shaving, a lightweight, disposable razor works best.
- For sensitive areas or delicate skin: Choose razors with protective combs or smooth blades.
- For high-frequency use, opt for bulk packs like our 100 per box LIV razors. These help maintain hygiene without the hassle of repeated restocking.
Prioritise Safety and Hygiene
Disposable razors are ideal for clinical settings. They reduce contamination risks and save time. Our LIV Surgical Preparation Body Razors are single-use and sterile, so you don’t need to worry about cross-contamination. No reusing, no cleaning, no stress.
And since they’re individually wrapped, each blade stays fresh and hygienic, ready for instant use when you need it.
Go for Comfort and Grip
Imagine trying to shave around a curved or tricky spot with a slippery or short razor—yeah, not ideal. That’s why handle length matters. Our 90mm handle razors provide a solid and secure grip. You get better control, less pressure on the skin, and a smoother shaving experience for your patients.
The lightweight design also reduces hand fatigue during repeated use. Win-win.
Check Blade Sharpness and Quality
Blunt blades? Big no. They can cause skin irritation, razor burns, or even nicks. That’s the last thing anyone wants before surgery.
Our surgical blades are ultra-sharp and built for precision. They glide through hair smoothly, minimising tugging or pulling. Less trauma, more comfort.
Additionally, the double-edge design allows you to use both sides of the blade, making each shave more efficient and cost-effective.
Stock Smart: Choose Bulk Packs
Running out of razors mid-week? No thanks.
Our LIV Surgical Prep Razors are available in bulk boxes of 100, ensuring you’re always stocked and ready. Bulk buying also helps you save money while maintaining high prep standards.
Whether you’re a hospital, clinic, or surgery centre, keeping essential tools like surgical blades in bulk is just good practice.
