Widening and stabilisation of the inner nasal valve by Breathe-Implant
The inner valve consists of the edge of the upper lateral cartilage and the septal cartilage.
Any widening of this area results in a reduction of air resistance of r4 (distance exponential 4) according to the law of Hagen-Poiseuille.
