Advantages and disadvantages for using cannula needle for lip augmentation?

mwc520
Hi, I've had 2 lip injections done previously using normal needles and I had a lot of swelling and bruising and I'm thinking of finding a clinic that uses cannula needle. But before that, can you tell me the advantages and disadvantages of using cannula needles for lips? Thanks.
