Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure beloved by the surgical world for its promising results. This medical procedure serves a dual purpose: it can either fix a breathing issue or remodel the nose for aesthetic purposes. Depending upon specific goals, practitioners have developed different types of rhinoplasties. Specialized rhinoplasty surgical instruments crafted according to the anatomical structures of the nasal passage are needed. Grey Medical is a certified surgical company manufacturing rhinoplasty surgical instruments and tools for successful surgical reconstruction.
In this article, we will walk you through premium-quality rhinoplasty surgical instruments. Moreover, we will cover essential tools needed for surgical reconstruction in depth. Continue reading to explore!
Perform Successful Nasal Reconstruction with Grey Medical’s Top-Quality Rhinoplasty Surgical Instruments
Grey Medical takes pride in delivering the best of the surgical world. We have put the best foot forward with our top-quality rhinoplasty surgical instruments. In addition to our basic set comprising 46 nasal tools, we have a comprehensive rhinoplasty set with 82 tools.
A quick overview of our rhinoplasty surgical instruments is mentioned below:
Osteotome
These are specialized rhinoplasty surgical instruments crafted to assist plastic surgeons. They are shaped into a chisel-like structure with reshaping nodes for remodelling the nasal bones. During rhinoplasty, these can be used to trim the edges of the bones. Moreover, in case of overgrowth, osteotomes can be employed for cutting the extra bone.
Rasps
Nasal bones need to be rasped for a refined look. For this purpose, surgical practitioners use nasal rasping tools. Most of these tools have rough surfaces and tips to scrape the outgrowths and pointed tips of the cartilage and bones. Additionally, rasping tools allow the surgeons to round up the corners and shape the grainy structures of the bones.
Elevators
Surgical elevators are used during rhinoplasty surgeries to push aside bone flaps and lift bony structures of the nose. There are multiple nasal elevators available to the surgeons. Mostly, double-ended elevators with blunt tips are used for this purpose. For example, Cottle Nasal Elevator, McKenty Elevator, Roger Periosteal Elevator, etc.
Suction Device
Surgery sites often get saturated with blood, mucus, or a combination of both during the procedure. The practitioners need to actively remove these substances from the nasal passage. Removing these substances helps surgeons to navigate their way through the surgery with ease and comfort. A suction device is used to remove any fluid accumulation from the nasal passageway. Moreover, it enables the surgeons to keep the surgical wound clean from any blood clots and mucus.
Nasal Speculum
It is a retracting surgical tool used to expose the underlying nasal structure. It helps the practitioners to access the deeper structures of the nose. Furthermore, it has a locking mechanism which allows the surgeons to keep their hands free during the procedure. Once the speculum is in place, surgeons can navigate their way through the procedure.
Scissors
Rhinoplasty involves the use of different types of scissors. These are used by surgeons to trim the cartilage during the procedure. Straight-blade scissors are used for precise cutting. To access closeted areas, curved-blade scissors are used. Furthermore, dissecting scissors are used to carefully incise and separate the delicate tissues from each other. All these instruments are atraumatic and do not cause any damage to the nearby tissues.
Forceps
Surgical forceps are a favourite of surgeons. They allow the practitioners to firmly grasp the tissues during a surgical procedure. Most of the forceps used in rhinoplasty come with a ratcheted lock mechanism. Surgeons pick and choose the forcep of their choice depending upon the particular functions and needs.
For instance, Adson forceps work the best for grasping the cartilage, alligator forceps with their angled ends allow the surgeons to reach close areas of the nose, and bayonet forceps help practitioners to access hard-to-reach areas.
Scalpel
A surgeon needs to expose the surgical site to its fullest for surgical manipulation. For this purpose, scalpels are used. A scalpel is a specialized medical tool which enables the surgeons to notch an incision on the surface of the nose. It enables practitioners to cut through the many layers of the skin and cartilage for diagnosing and treating certain disorders.
Needle Holder
The surgeons close up the wounds with a needle and its holder. A needle holder keeps the needle firm during the suturing. For example, the Mayo-Hegar Needle Holder has a hook-shaped tip for facilitating the suturing process. Additionally, the Olsen Hegar Needle holder and Castroviejo needle holder are also used for precise work.
Towel Clamp
Keeping the surgical site sterile is the most important step. For this purpose, various tools are employed. A towel clamp is a sterile surgical tool used to hold the surgical towels near the surgical site. This allows the surgeons to soak up all the blood and mucus, if any. In rhinoplasty, the blood oozes out which demands quick soaking. A towel clamp comes in handy at that point.
Mallet
A surgical mallet is a sturdy surgical tool. It is used to break and remodel the nasal bone according to the precise calculations of plastic surgeons. Mostly, this instrument is used in combination with other rasping tools and cutting instruments.
Cartilage Crusher
A cartilage crusher, as the name says, is used to practically crush the nasal bone and cartilage. Surgeons find it helpful as it allows them to refine any outgrowths and pointed tips. It is constructed in a compact form and is mostly hand-held. In addition to remodelling, it allows the practitioners to flatten up the cartilage and bone grafts.
Cartilage Grid
A cartilage grip is a specialized rhinoplasty instrument for nasal reconstruction. It visualizes a grid which is used to measure the cartilage grafts. Once the grafts are measured, they are then used to reshape the nose. This grid had precise markings and notches for highly precise results and outcomes.
Septum forceps
A septum forcep is a high-quality rhinoplasty tool for operating on the septal cartilage. It enables the surgeons to firmly grasp the septum for precise manoeuvring. These instruments are made atraumatic for secure manipulation of the septal cartilage.
FAQs
Q1: How is the nose job carried out?
Nose jobs are carried out by certified professionals who work by using nasal reshaping instruments and high-quality rhinoplasty tools. The practitioners trim the excess cartilage when needed for a remodelled look of the nose.
Q2: Which rhinoplasty procedure is mostly preferred by the people?
Mostly, people prefer closed rhinoplasty procedures. Closed rhinoplasties rely on fine incisions and controlled nose work. Additionally, these days people are also moving towards ultrasonic rhinoplasty procedures.
