Cannula Needles. Are they better to use for lip fillers?

beckluv552
I have been doing research on lip fillers and I am interested in getting Juvederm lip fillers and I have heard that the use of a cannula needle is actually better for injections because it doesn't require as many injections sites and it doesn't cause a lot of bruising and swelling as other methods. Is this a factual statement? If an office does not offer this, what would be the next best option to have minimal bruising and swelling after injections?
