Gubisch Kilner Alar Retractors

Description

Gubisch Kilner Alar Retractors are surgical devices intended exclusively for rhinoplasty and other nose-related operations.

Purpose:

• Retract the nose’s alar (wing) during surgery.
• Improve nasal cavity exposure for enhanced visibility and operation.

Design:

• Double Nasal Hook has two wide-set prongs that efficiently stretch the nostrils apart.
• Sharp Prongs: Typically measuring 5x10mm, these prongs provide a firm grip on the alar while minimizing tissue injury.
• Ergonomic Design: Provides comfortable handling for the surgeon, enhancing control and efficiency throughout the process.
• Length: Typically approximately 8cm, with enough reach for proper exposure.

Benefits:

• Enhanced Visualization: By retracting the alar, the retractor provides a better vision of the nasal cavity, allowing for more accurate surgical procedures.
• Improved Access: The wider nasal cavity allows for greater access to underlying tissues and structures.
• Efficiency: The design encourages smooth operation by offering a pleasant grip and optimum exposure.

Applications:

• Rhinoplasty (surgical nose remodeling)
• Septoplasty (rectification of a deviated septum).
• Nasal polyp removal.
• Other procedures needing nasal cavity exposure.
