SeptumStrip
“The natural alternative for your rhinoplasty procedures”
The SeptumStrip is designed to provide surgeons a good alternative to autologous cartilage. The use of the strip ensure functional and aesthetic improvements due to its biological characteristics. The advantages:
- Pre-shaped for easy use
- No secondary surgery site
- Biocompatible
- Good clinical results
Benefits
SeptumStrip is allograft costal cartilage developed with unique features. It is more convenient than autograft and more natural than synthetics. Due to unique processing methods, SeptumStrip is more biocompatible compared to other allografts.
The use of SeptumStrip is favorable for the patient as there is no need for a secondary surgery site. The advantages are less risk of infection and prevents scarring. This results in a shorter operation.
SeptumStrip is ready for use as it is pre-shaped. Another advantage is that it does not warp thereby guaranteeing consistent graft quality. It requires little manipulation to be used as columellar strut, spreader graft or dorsal on-lay graft. SeptumStrip is available in two sizes and is offered freeze dried and fresh frozen. It results in time savings and maintains the highest quality outcome for your patients.

SeptumSegment
“The best alternative for autologous tissue in rhinoplasty”
SeptumSegment is a larger sized costal cartilage which can be cut and sizes to any specific shape and form. The advantages:
- Can be customized as needed
- Fast and easy alternative to autologous cartilage
- Fresh frozen or freeze dried available
- Good clinical results
Benefits
SeptumSegment is costal cartilage in specific sizes for rhinoplasty procedures. Cartilage is used for over decades as a safe and proven alternative for autologous graft or synthetic product. It is biocompatible and the quality of SeptumSegment is consistent and has studies show that the complication rates are low[1]. It yields good functional, structural and cosmetic results in complex and challenging operations with very few complications as a result[2].
Studies confirm safety and reliability in primary and revision rhinoplasty without creating donor site morbidity. If the patient does not have sufficient or good quality of cartilage, SeptumSegment is a good alternative. Given the clinical results, it is beneficial for the patient to use SeptumSegment than autologous grafts as the second donor site comes with additional risks due to more extensive anesthesia and infection risks and consequences thereof.
SeptumSegment is ready for use, and can be cut and shaped to any desired size. It is a safe and fast product for rhinoplasty surgery. It comes in two variations in length: larger than 15 mm and larger than 30 mm. It is offered freeze dried and fresh frozen.

StemPatch
“Supporting matrix to be combined with autologous cartilage for better results”
For surgeons who prefer the use of autologous cartilage, StemPatch is developed. This graft is suitable to hold the tissue and has beneficial characteristics. The advantages:
- Ensures containment of cut autologous cartilage
- Faster integration and healing of the cartilage
- Less scarring and inflammation
- Good clinical results
Benefits
StemPatch is a thin amniotic membrane that can be used during rhinoplasty. It is a biological matrix and acts as a containment graft to be used in combination with autologous cartilage. In a case study this graft is used in a tissue defect on the nasal tip[3]. Complete healing was noted at the 3 month follow up. This confirms that StemPatch is suitable for use during rhinoplasty surgery.
The StemPatch matrix is intended to contain the cut cartilage and will keep it viable. It is suitable for primary and revision surgery.
The StemPatch is customized for use for rhinoplasty as it is pre-shaped and cut so it can be used off the shelve. It is offered freeze dried.
