Lewis Nasal Rasp Archives

The Lewis Nasal Rasp is a specialized instrument used in rhinoplasty for the final smoothing and contouring of the nasal bones after osteotomy or hump reduction. It features a flat or slightly curved abrasive surface with fine, diamond-cut or cross-hatched teeth. This design allows the surgeon to file away minor bony irregularities, sharp edges, or residual humps with controlled, back-and-forth strokes, creating a perfectly smooth and symmetrical nasal dorsum. It is an essential finishing tool for eliminating palpable imperfections and achieving a polished aesthetic result.
