Cannulas
Cannulas are instruments used in aesthetic medicine for administering injections. Cannulas are long, thin needles with a rounded end, and they can be made of metal or plastic. They can be used in various procedures such as injections of botulinum toxin or fillers, and mesotherapy.
Key advantages of cannulas compared to regular needles:
— Less pain and discomfort: Thanks to the rounded tip of the cannula, the injection process becomes less painful and causes less discomfort compared to regular needles.
— Reduced risk of tissue trauma: Due to the rounded end and different construction, cannulas cause less damage to surrounding tissues during injection.
— More precise injection: Cannulas provide a more accurate and even distribution of the substance, enhancing the quality of the procedure.
— Lower risk of bruising: Cannulas exert less pressure on blood vessels and capillaries, reducing the risk of bruising.
— Safety: Cannulas are safer, as they allow the practitioner to administer injections at greater depths, minimizing the risk of nerve, blood vessel, and tissue damage.
The choice between cannulas and regular needles depends on the type of procedure, the individual characteristics of the patient, and the personal preferences of the specialist.
