The Aufricht nasal retractor lifts the nasal skin to expose the dorsum during rhinoplasty. It is 6″ (152mm) long, with an 8mm wide blade.
Because the blade is slim, it slides easily under the skin envelope. As a result, you get a clear view of the bony and cartilage framework. Also, the light handle reduces fatigue in long cases.
