Blunt micro cannula for dermal filler injection

Description

FMC Fine Micro Cannulae 30G 25mm is an electro-polished, ultra-thin wall, blunt-tip stainless steel micro cannula with a side port, designed for atraumatic treatment with all dermal fillers. The wider internal calibre reduces extrusion force and allows smoother, more controlled injection. A gently curved cutting edge around the side hole, together with the polished and coated surface, is intended to minimise tissue trauma. Each sterile, single-use cannula includes a matching pre-hole sharp needle and is individually blister-packed.

Bnefits

Blunt tip design to support atraumatic injection and reduce tissue damage
Ultra-thin wall and wider internal calibre for lower extrusion force and smoother product flow
Electro-polished, specially coated surface to facilitate smooth passage through tissue
Gently curved cutting edge around the side port to help minimise vascular and tissue injury
High-quality stainless steel for flexibility and strength of the cannula shaft
Gradation marks and hub orientation mark to assist with precise placement and control
Supplied sterile and individually blister-packed for maximum sterility
Includes a matching pre-hole sharp needle (introducer) of the same diameter for access

Indications

Single-use sterile cannula for subcutaneous and dermal injection of hyaluronic acid and other dermal fillers
Aesthetic facial procedures where a blunt micro cannula is preferred over a sharp needle to help reduce bruising and tissue trauma

Composition

Electro-polished stainless steel cannula, 30G diameter, 25 mm length, with lateral side port and blunt tip
Matching pre-hole sharp needle, 27G diameter, 13 mm length (introducer needle packaged with each cannula)
Polymer hub suitable for standard luer connection (as implied by common clinical use)
Sterile, single-use construction

Packaging

Each cannula supplied in an individual sterile blister pack

Usage

For use only by appropriately trained healthcare professionals experienced in dermal filler injection techniques.
Maintain aseptic technique throughout the procedure. Inspect the sterile blister before use; do not use if packaging is opened or damaged.
Attach the supplied pre-hole sharp needle to an appropriate syringe and create an entry point at the desired injection site.
Remove the sharp needle, then attach the FMC 30G x 25 mm blunt cannula to the syringe containing dermal filler or other approved injectable product.
Introduce the cannula through the pre-made entry point and advance along the planned tissue plane, using the orientation and gradation marks to guide placement.
Inject product slowly and with controlled pressure, taking advantage of the ultra-thin wall to minimise extrusion force.
After use, immediately dispose of the cannula and introducer needle in an approved sharps container. Do not re-sterilise or reuse.

Contraindications

Do not use if the sterile blister packaging is damaged or opened prior to use.
Do not reuse or re-sterilise; reuse may increase the risk of infection, loss of sterility, and device malfunction.
Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity to any component of the device if such sensitivity is suspected.
Do not use at sites of active infection, inflammation, or compromised skin integrity, in line with standard contraindications for dermal filler injections.

Adverse Effects

As with other dermal injection devices, potential adverse events may include pain, bleeding, bruising, swelling, and infection at the injection site.
Needle-stick injuries from the introducer needle or contaminated devices may transmit infection if not handled and disposed of correctly.
Improper use may increase the risk of vascular injury or embolisation when combined with injectable fillers.

Storage Conditions

Store at room temperature.
Keep in original packaging until use to maintain sterility.
Observe the manufacturer’s expiry date; the stated shelf life in the IFU is three years from date of manufacture.
Protect from excessive heat, moisture, or direct sunlight.

Duration

Single-use device intended for one procedure only; not designed for reuse or prolonged indwelling placement.

Onset

Not applicable as a delivery device; the cannula provides immediate mechanical access for injection, while onset and duration of clinical effect depend on the product being injected.
