Fomon Rhinology Chisel 4mm, 17cm

Clinical Application

Designed for rhinologic and nasal-plastic procedures that require precise bone and cartilage modification, this chisel is used to score, shape or remove small segments of nasal bone and septal cartilage. It is appropriate for controlled osteotomy maneuvers and fine sculpting in limited working spaces commonly encountered in septoplasty, external and endonasal rhinoplasty, and other ENT procedures.

Design & Configuration

The 4 mm cutting width provides a narrow, controlled cutting surface for targeted bone work in confined nasal anatomy. The 17 cm overall length offers reach into the nasal vault while preserving the tactile feedback surgeons rely on for delicate bone scoring. The flat, beveled chisel tip geometry permits precise, linear cuts and controlled shaving rather than broad removal, helping minimize collateral trauma to adjacent soft tissue.
