Described herein are devices and methods comprising a system for tissue reinforcement, such as stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor in vaginal wall prolapse. The surgical treatment can provide a mechanical support or bridging material for a fascial defect. An implant with four arms, for example two proximal arms and two distal arms, can provide post-surgical adjustability of the graft position, enabling tension free placement of the implant. In addition, a four-point fixation of the implant with apical support can ensure a suitable anatomical repair. Furthermore, instrumentation is disclosed herein, including an introducer device capable of fixing a wide variety of materials, such as mesh arms and suture, to tissue.
