Clinical Application
This fine‑tooth nasal rasp is intended for intraoperative contouring and refinement of nasal bone and cartilage. It is used to smooth bony irregularities, refine the nasal dorsum, and address small humps or step-offs during open or closed rhinoplasty and septoplasty procedures. The fine tooth pattern allows controlled material removal for delicate cosmetic and functional adjustments.
Design & Configuration
The fine‑tooth rasping surface produces a less aggressive cut than coarse rasps, enabling incremental smoothing and a finer finished surface on delicate nasal structures. The 21 cm length provides reach and ergonomic hand positioning for both intranasal and external approaches while maintaining tactile feedback and operator control. The rasping face geometry is optimized for planar and slightly curved nasal surfaces to reduce gouging and improve contour predictability.
