I recently saw on Dr.Miami's Snapchat he talked about how it's dangerous to use smaller than a 4mm cannula to inject fat for bbl because of the risk of fat embolism. My surgeon board certified, but he uses an 18 gauge syringe to inject fat for bbl. I messaged Dr.Miami and asked if I should cancel my surgery and he said "yes" because my surgeon's technique is dangerous. I'm scheduled for the surgery next week and I've already paid for it, but now I'm afraid. Is it dangerous to use 18g syringe?
