Is the Microdroplet lip filler technique safer in terms of occlusion vs. other methods?

January 8, 2021
Asked By:ashafae

I'm contemplating getting lip filler done and have come across the microdroplet technique. This looks to be less invasive than other methods but I have noticed the doctors I've watched don't aspirate. Does this mean the risk of occlusion is less with the micro droplet technique than other methods ? Is this because of using an insulin syringe?
