Cottle alar retractors expose the alar base and lateral nasal sidewall during rhinoplasty tip-refinement and columellar approaches. The tapered 16 to 13mm blade narrows progressively from handle to tip, optimizing visualization of the alar-domal junction while minimizing tissue trauma. Straight geometry delivers direct atraumatic retraction of thin alar soft tissue.
Features & Benefits
- Tapered 16‑13mm blade optimizes alar visibility
- Direct alar-base exposure during tip surgery
