I am thinking of having Fillers but most of the Drs I have had consultation with say they use needles. This is putting me off as I believe there is a higher risk of tissue necrosis with needles. How much more of a risk is it?
Answer: Dermal Fillers, which is safer: needle or cannula? I personally use cannulas for the most part, although for fine tuning I may use needles, I think cannulas are much safer to use, but more technically difficult to use.

Answer: Cannula Hello,Thank you for your question. A cannula is a better option over the needle. You will have less swelling, bruising, and pain. However, it is imperative that the physician knows how to use them correctly. Consult with local physicians until you find one you are confident in. Good luck!

Answer: Microcannula versus needle for filler injection Generally, it is thought that blunt tip microcannulas are safer then needles when injecting fillers because of reduced risk of intravascular injection. Microcannulas also help reduce bruising and swelling related to the injection. In my practice, I use both needles and microcannulas. The microcannulas are used in vascular areas like the tear troughs while needles are used in areas where more controlled placement of the filler is required such as lip lines and folds. Both are useful and both can be used safely as long as the injector is experienced.

Answer: Dermal fillers, which is safer: needle or cannula? Thank you for your excellent question. A Cannula is generally safer than a needle and with less bruising, pain and swelling. However, some results are better achieved when using needles. Needles are often used alone or in combination with cannulas and away from the ¨danger zone¨of the face. I hope this help. Please see an expert. All the best, Dr.Michon
