Cottle Nasal Lower lateral Fcps 2x2T, 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed for nasal and rhinoplasty procedures, this instrument provides secure, localized purchase on the lower lateral cartilage and adjacent soft tissues. It is used during open and closed rhinoplasty, alar base adjustments, graft placement, and repair of alar cartilage to manipulate, approximate, and hold delicate tissues while sutures are placed or cartilage is reshaped.

Design & Configuration

The 2x2T toothed tip offers focused gripping points that improve control of slippery cartilage and soft tissue in a confined intranasal field. The 14 cm length balances reach and tactile feedback, allowing access to the nasal vault and alar region without excessive shaft bulk. A slender distal geometry facilitates visualization and precise handling in narrow corridors while minimizing collateral tissue compression.
