Facial and Body Application of Lipolytics through Cannulas: A New Strategy that is Safe, Effective and Better Tolerated by Patients

Vivian de Carvalho Amaral*

The classic lipolytic injection technique involves multiple punctures, which causes extreme discomfort due to the needling and the formation of hematomas. We describe a technique in which the lipolytic is delivered to the adipose tissue through cannulas with a blunt tip, minimizing the number of punctures and, therefore, pain and bruising. In addition, one of the most feared complications of the procedure is skin necrosis, caused by intravascular or intradermal injection. The use of blunt tip cannulas minimizes intravascular injection risks and facilitates subcutaneous injection, as the device does not slide easily through the dermis. We have used this application technique with excellent results and without major complications. Because it is less painful and has a more pleasant post-procedure, we have obtained lower rates of treatment abandonment and, therefore, better final results.
