- This popular technique involves inserting a thin, flexible tube called the cannula into the skin to distribute the filler evenly.
- The plastic surgeon administers local anesthesia to numb the area before inserting the micro cannula into the skin, allowing for precise injection of the filler without damaging the surrounding tissue. By moving the micro cannula back and forth in a fanning motion, the plastic surgeon distributes the filler evenly. The amount of filler used depends on the desired outcome. The plastic surgeon slowly injects it to ensure even distribution and avoid overfilling.
- After injection, the plastic surgeon massages the area to ensure natural-looking, smooth results. Micro cannula injection results are immediate and last up to two years, making it an ideal option for those looking for a minimally invasive, low-downtime cosmetic procedure.
- Many plastic surgeons prefer this safe and effective technique for micro cannula injection towards enhancing the appearance of their patients. However, the level of skill of the plastic surgeon and the type of filler used affect the results. It is, therefore, essential to consult with a highly skilled, board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in micro cannula injection.
