Two absorbable tensioning sutures are threaded into the length of the mesh. Plastic sheaths are placed over each arm of the mesh to aide in ease of placement.

The mesh and suture portions of the sling are intended to remain in the body as a permanent implant and the mesh component is not absorbed or degraded by the action of tissue in-growth or tissue enzymes.
