In dermatology, facial fillers are of great importance in the treatment of wrinkles and expression lines, their use being for aesthetic purposes. Their application is usually carried out with needles, which can lead to complications during the procedure. Among them hematomas, ischemia, necrosis, and even blindness. In recent years however, the application of fillers with microcannulas has revolutionized the techniques of application, in this way avoiding the occurrence of complications during and after the procedure. The present paper is aimed at clarifying the nomenclature, characteristics, and dimensions of the cannulas.
