Cakir Preservation Rasp Archives

The Cakir Preservation Rasp is a specialized rhinoplasty instrument designed for the controlled and atraumatic reduction of a bony dorsal hump, emphasizing the preservation of the underlying mucoperiosteum. Its unique design features a broad, flat rasping surface with fine, sharp teeth that allow for efficient bone removal while its edges are often rounded or guarded to minimize the risk of tearing the delicate nasal mucosa. This instrument facilitates a component dorsal reduction technique, enabling the surgeon to lower the bony dorsum incrementally and smoothly while maintaining the integrity of the soft tissue envelope for better healing and a more predictable outcome.

Key Features:

Broad, flat rasping surface with fine, sharp teeth for efficient bony dorsal reduction.
Rounded or guarded edges designed to protect the underlying nasal mucosa (mucoperiosteum).
Facilitates a preservation rhinoplasty technique by allowing incremental hump removal.
Promotes smoother dorsal lines and reduces the risk of soft tissue trauma and irregularities.
Provides excellent control and tactile feedback during dorsal contouring.
A modern instrument for surgeons adopting tissue-preserving rhinoplasty approaches.
