This patient presented with asymmetric, developmental deviation of the nose - an asymmetric nose on an asymmetric face. Before surgery we notice the nose, and after we notice the eyes! Lifting the tip uncrowds the lower lip and makes the nose and face much more feminine. Since the bridge was narrow and the tip was wide, it helped to also widen the middle third so that the upper, middle and lower third were congruent. After it was removed the nose appeared to be very wide and piezosurgery was used to narrow the nose. Piezo instrumentation is accurate to the millimeter. You will notice that before surgery the left nasal bone was farther out than the right. Using piezosurgery, the nose was narrowed by bringing in the left nasal bone in more than the right. This patient presented with a wide nose and wide tip. The tip was also modified to improve the definition. With piezosurgery I was able to narrow the dorsal lines (width) and to make them uniform and straight coming down the nose. This patient presented with a crooked nose that was wide and had a bulbous tip.
It has been with Piezosurgery that I can now accurately sculpt bones to smooth the transition from the forehead and brows to the nose. In surgery, I can create symmetric and fluid dorsal aesthetic lines. When women contour their noses, they are trying to create shadows to set off the bridge from the nasal sidewalls. But getting a good front view, which makes a person more attractive, is the ultimate goal. Setting a good profile is the first step in becoming a good rhinoplasty surgeon. I have always said that it is the front view that separates the good rhinoplasty surgeon from the great rhinoplasty surgeon. How Does this Improve Dorsal Aesthetic Lines?ĭorsal aesthetic lines are the lines of your nose that are seen on front view with flash photography. This has improved my result dramatically, especially with the frontal view and dorsal aesthetic lines. With Piezosurgery, asymmetries and irregularities can be sculpted with precision and all bone cuts are visualized during surgery. Bone fractures could occur where we did not want them to and the movement was uncontrolled.
#MECTRON PIEZO SKIN#
In the past, osteotomies (bone breaking) has always been done “blind,” meaning the instruments were placed under or through the skin and we could never see what was happening. Piezosurgery is a revolution for a rhinoplasty surgeon because of the accuracy and precision of the technology. ON - 120sec.Why is PiezoSurgery Important for the Rhinoplasty Surgeon? 93/42/CEE: Class II aĭevice for intermittent operation: 60sec. The cavitation effect of the ultrasonic movements lead to a blood-free surgical site.ĭevice compliant to Dir. PIEZOSURGERY® offers maximum intra-operative visibility. Thus, PIEZOSURGERY® offers maximum safety for surgeons and patients. Nerves, vessels and membranes will not be injured while cutting bone. Selective cuts protects any kind of soft tissue. PIEZOSURGERY® provides micrometric cuts for minimally invasive surgeries with maximum surgical precision and intra-operative tactile sensation. No soft tissue is damaged, which allows you to work with a precision that facilitates not only surgery itself, but reduces postoperative discomfort for your patients at the same time. The patented ultrasonic microvibrations of the original PIEZOSURGERY® cuts bone – and nothing else. They do cut bone – but they do not differentiate: any soft tissue getting in the way can also be damaged. When it comes to cutting bone, the use of traditional burs and saws are an option. With over 12 years of successful clinical research, the original PIEZOSURGERY® method is the only one supported by more than 120 clinical and scientific studies. So get ready for selecting bone quality and irrigation flow rate at the touch of your finger – get ready for the new PIEZOSURGERY® touch. Features include an exclusive black glass touch screen, an intuitive user interface, and a rotatable LED handpiece, which provides for a new level of ergonomics. In 2011, mectron raised the bar again with the PIEZOSURGERY® touch. Soon this new technology became the benchmark for bone surgery devices. The device provided precision, safety, ergonomics and high quality performance for surgeons all around the world. When mectron introduced PIEZOSURGERY® in 2001, the technology revolutionary for bone surgery.
