Primary Clinical Applications

1. Advanced Rhinoplasty: Perfect for shaping precise, symmetrical cartilage grafts needed for nasal tip refinement, rotation, and structural stabilization.

2. Nasal Reconstruction: Assists in creating uniform, specialized graft geometries required to repair structural valve collapses or congenital defects.

3. Aesthetic Facial Surgery: Provides reliable, repeatable cuts to achieve consistent aesthetic symmetry across delicate cartilage frameworks.

Maintenance & Handling Guidelines

• Cleaning: Promptly remove organic tissue and cartilage residue after use. Clean manually or via ultrasonic cleaners using neutral pH enzymatic solutions.

• Inspection: Periodically check the alignment of the figure-eight cutting edges to ensure clean, burr-free tissue extraction.

• Sterilization: Autoclave according to standard facility protocols; ensure instruments are fully dry before storage in a sterile instrument tray.
