Fomon Nasal Rasp

Fomon Nasal Rasp is a specialized facial plastic surgery instrument used to smooth and contour bony irregularities of the nasal framework during primary and revision rhinoplasty procedures.

Designed for meticulous bone refinement, the instrument features a precision-engineered rasping surface that allows controlled removal and smoothing of small amounts of bone while preserving the intended nasal contour and structural integrity.

Its slim profile and carefully contoured working end provide excellent access to the nasal dorsum, lateral nasal walls, and osteotomy sites, making it particularly suitable for both open and closed rhinoplasty techniques.

The instrument is commonly used following dorsal hump reduction, osteotomy, or nasal bone reshaping to refine residual irregularities and improve contour definition and symmetry.

The ergonomic handle offers a secure grip and superior tactile feedback, enabling clinicians to maintain precise control during delicate contouring procedures.

Available in multiple sizes, curvatures, and tooth configurations, Fomon Nasal Rasps can be selected according to patient anatomy, surgical technique, and surgeon preference.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument delivers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. The satin or matte low-glare finish minimizes reflections under surgical lighting and facilitates efficient cleaning and maintenance.

Widely used in hospitals, facial plastic surgery centers, ENT departments, and ambulatory surgical facilities, the Fomon Nasal Rasp is an essential component of rhinoplasty and nasal reconstruction instrument sets.

Fully reusable and autoclavable, the instrument is designed to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles while maintaining rasp sharpness, dimensional accuracy, and structural integrity.

• Primary Rhinoplasty
• Revision Rhinoplasty
• Septorhinoplasty
• Dorsal Hump Reduction
• Nasal Bone Smoothing
• Osteotomy Refinement
• Nasal Reconstruction
