Latera Absorbable Nasal Implant System - Nasal implant, synthetic polymer, bioabsorbable

Intended purpose

Latera Absorbable Nasal Implant System is indicated for supporting upper and lower lateral nasal cartilage.

Functional description

The Latera Absorbable Nasal Implant System is an implant and delivery device system, where the implant is inserted into the upper and/or lower lateral nasal cartilage using the delivery device to provide support to the cartilage by reinforcing the nasal wall. The Implant is composed of a polymer. The implant is absorbed by the body over a period of approximately 18 months, during which the implant is replaced with tissue fibers that provide ongoing nasal wall support.
