Abstract: Instruments including a pair of scissors (1) for removing the bump from an aquiline nose, wherein the scissors have cutting blades (5,6) with mutually facing concave cutting edges (7,8) matching the shape of the bump, as well as a clamp with two cutting blades each having a double curvature in two perpendicular planes so that the clamp fits the lateral bones of the nose. The clamp enables lateral osteotomy of the nose once the bump has been removed by means of the scissors (1), whereby the surgeon can reconstruct the shape and profile of the nose. The number of instruments needed may thus be reduced considerably relative to the prior art, while the reliability, accuracy and safety of the operation may be substantially enhanced.
