SHEEHAN 2 mm: a tapered instrument for demanding surgical procedures
The 2 mm SHEEHAN osteotome from Frimed, with a length of 15 cm, is an indispensable tool in nasal and maxillofacial surgery, particularly for rhinoplasty procedures and lateral osteotomies. This model is distinguished by its straight, flat and tapered shape, which allows precise penetration into narrow bone structures. Unlike the wider osteotomes in the SHEEHAN range, this one has an extremely thin 2 mm blade, ideal for delicate bone incisions where the margin for error is minimal.
The flat section and tapered profile towards the tip ensure a linear, clean and predictable cut, while reducing collateral trauma to surrounding tissue. This straight, symmetrical shape gives the surgeon a direct view of the instrument's trajectory and allows precise control of the force applied. The SHEEHAN 2 mm osteotome is therefore particularly suitable for procedures requiring meticulous work, such as the correction of small nasal asymmetries or the preparation of bone grafts.
Made of surgical-grade stainless steel, it guarantees high durability, perfect corrosion resistance and compatibility with autoclave sterilisation processes. Its hexagonal handle provides excellent grip, limiting the risk of slipping or rotation when striking with the surgical hammer.
Used alone or in combination with other wider osteotomes for the final stages of surgery, this model is a technical and strategic choice for ENT, cosmetic and plastic surgeons.
