Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rhinoplasty instrument technology, specifically an instrument that simulates the shape of the nasal tip after rhinoplasty. Background Technology
[0002] Instruments that simulate the shape of the nasal tip after rhinoplasty are professional tools used to help doctors visually and accurately demonstrate to patients the possible shape of the nasal tip after surgery, thereby improving the efficiency of communication between doctors and patients and surgical satisfaction.
[0003] Currently, there are persistent problems in explaining and demonstrating the post-operative nasal tip shape to patients with low noses during rhinoplasty consultations. In existing communication methods, doctors often need to directly pinch the skin of the patient's nasal tip with their fingers to simulate and explain the expected surgical effect. However, this method is inconvenient. Doctors must operate with their fingers in a limited space, which may cause discomfort to the patient due to hand contact. Secondly, direct contact with the patient's skin increases the risk of cross-infection. Furthermore, the shape of the nasal tip pinched by the doctor may vary from person to person, making it difficult to ensure consistency and accuracy in each simulation. In addition, when the doctor pinches the nasal tip... This can obstruct the patient's view, preventing them from clearly seeing the simulated effect. Even though some cosmetic clinics have begun to try using software-simulated images to demonstrate surgical results, while this method improves the accuracy and three-dimensionality of the simulation to some extent, it requires specialized image acquisition equipment and corresponding software technology, increasing costs and technical difficulty. Furthermore, if adjustments to the plan are needed during doctor-patient communication, the images need to be redesigned and generated, which is both time-consuming and laborious. More importantly, this demonstration method is still conducted on a computer screen, lacking a realistic three-dimensional feel and tactile sensation, making it difficult for patients to intuitively understand and experience the surgical effect. Therefore, this invention provides an instrument for simulating the nasal tip shape after rhinoplasty. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 ,
[0026] Example 1: An instrument for simulating the nasal tip shape after rhinoplasty, comprising a forceps body 1 and detachable silicone caps 2. The forceps body 1 adopts a common medical dental forceps design, which is structurally stable and easy to operate. The tip of the forceps body 1 is designed with standard medical forceps teeth for precise operation. The forceps body 1 is a metal forceps structure, providing a stable grip and operating base. Two detachable silicone caps 2 are provided on one side of the forceps body 1. The detachable silicone caps 2 are used to simulate the nasal tip shape after rhinoplasty, providing different sizes to meet the needs of different patients. At the same time, their soft silicone material and antibacterial coating treatment ensure comfort and hygiene during use. The detachable silicone cap 2 has a nasal cavity fitting part 3 at one top end, which is used to better fit the physiological structure of the nasal vestibule. The detachable silicone cap 2 has a nostril insertion part 4 at one bottom end, which is used to facilitate the user to smoothly insert the detachable silicone cap 2 into the nostril. The detachable silicone cap 2 and the forceps body 1 have a front end tube 5 on one side, which is used to connect and cooperate with the forceps body. The front end tube 5 has a connecting horn groove 6 on the side facing the forceps body 1 inside, which is used to connect with different types of forceps and keep them stable. The design of the connecting horn groove 6 helps to prevent the silicone cap from slipping off during operation.
[0027] In this embodiment, the tweezers body 1 is provided with a handle 7 on the side away from the detachable silicone cap 2. The handle 7 is used to provide a gripping point for the user, making it easy to operate and control the instrument. The handle 7 is made of antibacterial material to ensure that the user can maintain hygiene and safety during use. The handle 7 adopts a streamlined shape to improve the user's grip comfort and ease of operation.
[0028] In this embodiment, the detachable silicone cap 2 has a T-shaped structure, with its height designed to be 1.5 cm and 1 cm for the large and small sizes, respectively. This allows for proper expansion of the soft tissue of the nose, preventing discomfort caused by excessive pressure. The detachable silicone cap 2 is made of high-quality soft silicone, which is non-irritating to the skin, durable, and easy to clean. The surface of the detachable silicone cap 2 is treated with an antibacterial coating to further ensure hygiene and safety and prevent bacterial growth.
[0029] In this embodiment, the nasal cavity fitting part 3 adopts an inverted teardrop-shaped structure, which is designed with an arc shape so as to better fit the shape of the nasal vestibule. The nasal cavity fitting part 3 has a certain elasticity to ensure that it can be easily inserted into the nasal cavity and slightly stretch the nasal tissue without causing discomfort to the user. The nostril insertion part 4 adopts a rod-shaped structure, and the front end tube 5 is designed as a slender tubular structure with the opening of the tubular structure facing the forceps body 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, the detachable silicone cap 2 can be transparent or semi-transparent. This design not only highlights the uniqueness of the silicone material, but also ensures that the user can clearly observe the operation process when using the instrument, thereby improving the accuracy and safety of the operation.
[0031] It should be noted that during use, the doctor or operator should hold the handle 7, maintaining a stable grip, and gently insert the nasal insertion part 4 of the detachable silicone cap 2 into the patient's nostril, ensuring that the nasal cavity fitting part 3 fits tightly against the nasal vestibule. According to the needs of the surgical simulation, appropriate force is applied through the handle 7 to pinch the columella and pull it forward and upward to simulate the nasal tip shape after rhinoplasty. During the operation, the angle and amplitude of pulling can be adjusted to simulate different nasal tip rotation, nasal tip upturn, seagull line, and other common anatomical landmarks in rhinoplasty. Because the detachable silicone cap 2 is transparent or semi-transparent, the doctor or operator can clearly observe the operation process, ensuring the accuracy and safety of the simulation effect. The head device is available in large, medium, and small sizes according to different nasal cavity shapes to meet the needs of different patients and ensure the accuracy and personalization of the simulation effect.
[0032] The beneficial effects of the above embodiments:
[0033] This instrument, which simulates the shape of the nasal tip after rhinoplasty, achieves a quick and replaceable head device design through the combination of handle 7 and detachable silicone cap 2. This makes the device easy and quick to replace and use, and the device cost is low. The detachable silicone cap 2 is made of soft silicone material and treated with antibacterial coating, which further improves the cleanliness, hygiene and softness of the product. In addition, the teardrop-shaped structure of the nasal cavity fitting part 3 and the rod-shaped structure of the nostril insertion part 4 make it easy to insert the detachable silicone cap 2 into the nasal cavity and appropriately stretch the soft tissue of the nose to avoid discomfort. The slender tubular structure of the front tube 5, together with the connecting horn groove 6 opened inside, allows the detachable silicone cap 2 to be adapted to different sizes of forceps.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
