Cinelli Guarded Osteotome, 16cm, Straight

Osteotomy—the deliberate, controlled fracturing of nasal bone—sits close to soft tissue that surgeons need to leave alone. The Cinelli Guarded Osteotome handles that tension directly: a shield built into the blade design keeps adjacent soft tissue protected from the cutting edge while the surgeon works.

The Guard Isn't a Minor Detail

Lateral osteotomies in particular run close to the periosteum and surrounding soft tissue that needs to stay intact for proper healing. Without protection, that proximity risks unnecessary bruising and swelling. The guard here addresses that directly, rather than leaving it to the surgeon's precision alone.

Straight and 16cm, Built for Predictable Lines

A straight profile at this length supports clean, predictable osteotomy paths along the nasal sidewall, ensuring the cut follows the intended trajectory rather than deviating due to instrument flex or an awkward angle.

Mallet-Guided, Incrementally Controlled

Used with a surgical mallet, this osteotome lets a surgeon apply force in controlled increments exactly where intended. The handle transmits mallet force efficiently while staying stable and comfortable through repeated tapping.

Clean Division, Not Fragmentation

The cutting edge divides bone cleanly rather than crushing it, which supports more predictable healing and repositioning as the bone settles into its new, surgically corrected position.

A Foundational Tool for Structural Work

The plastic surgery instrument catalog has more where this came from, including the mallets and complementary tools that pair with this osteotome throughout structural rhinoplasty work.
