Research
Each line has a question, a subject, and a result that would change practice. All three stay inside the nose.
01 · Medical
Landmark-referenced 3D maps of the face, read across growth from childhood into the late teens. The model behind the forecast was built on a multi-ethnic set, ages 6–19, with 84 facial landmarks.
A result here is a shared measurement language: the same map for a growth forecast and for a surgical plan.
02 · Surgical
The work follows registration of the guide to the scanned anatomy, and whether the operated shape stays with the plan that was locked before the device was made. Plan, device, and outcome sit on one case file.
Guides already used in rhinoplasty are patient-specific. CE Class I and IIa in Europe; ANSM declaration filed. Patient-specific. US Class I classification.
03 · Interceptive
The same scan and plan forecast remaining growth. A physician can then order a night-worn orthosis, remade as the face changes, across a typical course of 24–36 months, with follow-up aimed through nasal maturity.
The early series is a pilot under practitioner supervision. It is not a consumer product, and it is not surgery.
