The invention relates to a handpiece for a device for performing laser surgery of the nose. It comprises a handle having a proximal end 36 including means enabling it to be connected to a source of laser radiation, a distal end 44 at which the laser radiation is supplied to a work zone, and a transit region 31, 52 for passing the laser radiation from the proximal end 36 to the distal end 44. According to the invention, the transit region 31 has a main axis 32 and the handpiece includes a distal region 4 forming an open channel 52 having an outside diameter 48 that it enables it to be inserted in the nostril of a patient, the device enabling high laser power to be delivered without giving rise to hemorrhage. |
