Little Round Hole Injector Cannula – Stainless Steel Luer Lock

Liposuction Cannulas and Accessories › Little Round Hole Injector Cannulas › Little Round Hole Injector Cannula – Stainless Steel Luer Lock

The Little Round Hole Injector Cannula with Stainless Steel Luer Lock fitting is used to place fat in fat transfer and fat grafting. It is listed under Little Round Hole Injector Cannulas, part of the Healermed Liposuction Cannulas and Accessories range.

Little Round Hole Injector Cannula — Stainless Steel Luer Lock

Hub material decides how long a reusable injector stays usable. Anodized aluminium hubs are lighter and cheaper, but the coating fades and the thread can gall after repeated steam cycles. A solid stainless steel hub keeps its thread form far longer, which matters on an instrument that is screwed on and off a syringe many times in a single grafting case.

What a Small Round Opening Does

One deliberately small round opening on the shaft, behind a closed blunt tip. The size is the specification: this is the injector for placing the least fat per pass of anything in the range.

Opening size sets thread diameter directly. A small round hole lays a fine thread, so the same graft volume is spread across many more passes and distributed through more of the recipient tissue. In sites where the graft can be seen or felt through thin skin, that fineness is the difference between a smooth result and a visible lump.

A round opening also delivers evenly in all directions relative to its own axis, so the thread is round in cross-section rather than flattened. Surgeons who cross-hatch a recipient site in several directions get a consistent deposit whichever way the cannula is turned.

The trade is time and pressure. Small openings need higher injection force for the same fat and fill slowly, so this is a finishing and fine-layer instrument, not the one to place bulk volume with.

How an Injector Cannula Places Fat

An injector cannula is the delivery end of a fat transfer. The syringe supplies the pressure, but where the graft ends up, and in what form, is decided by the cannula: its diameter, its opening, and the way the surgeon moves it.

Placement is done in retrograde. The cannula is advanced through the recipient plane, and fat is laid down as it is withdrawn, so the graft fills the tunnel the cannula has just made rather than being forced into tissue ahead of it. Each pass deposits a thread of fat. A result is built from many of those threads, crossed and layered, not from a few large boluses.

That is why the opening matters. Its size sets the diameter of the thread laid down; its position sets which way the fat is directed as the cannula withdraws; and its edge decides whether the parcel passes cleanly or is sheared at the exit. A wider opening places more per pass and fills faster; a smaller one places less and gives finer control in thin tissue where the graft can be seen through the skin.

Diameter and length work with it. A narrower cannula makes a smaller tunnel and allows finer layering, but it also raises injection pressure for the same fat, so the surgeon pushes harder. A longer shaft covers more of the recipient area from one entry point, which means fewer punctures. Matching all of this to the graft volume and the recipient site is the whole skill of the instrument choice.

Key Features

• ✔ Solid stainless steel Luer lock hub with no coating to wear off
• ✔ Small round opening lays the finest thread of any injector in the range
• ✔ Round aperture gives a consistent deposit whichever way the shaft is turned
• ✔ Spreads the same graft volume across more passes and more tissue contact
• ✔ Closed blunt tip allows repeated crossing passes

Specifications

Clinical Applications

• Fine-layer facial fat grafting under thin skin
• Periorbital and lip work where a lump would be visible
• Finishing passes over a graft placed with a larger injector
• Fine work with the 1.0mm to 1.6mm diameters

Material and Sterilization

The cannula is made from German stainless steel with a passivated surface that resists corrosion and pitting through repeated cleaning cycles. It is reusable and can be steam autoclaved at 134°C. Flush the lumen and the opening with clean water immediately after use and dry fully before autoclaving. A small opening blocks easily and is difficult to inspect, so flush immediately after use before graft residue sets and check the aperture under magnification at every cycle.

Why Buy Direct From the Manufacturer

Manufactured by Healermed Instruments, a surgical instruments manufacturer and exporter based in Sialkot, Pakistan. Factory-direct pricing removes the importer and distributor layer. Production runs under an ISO 13485 and FDA CGMP quality system, with ISO 9001 and CE Mark certification. OEM manufacturing and custom branding are available for distributor and brand-owner orders.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a little round hole injector cannula used for?

It is used to place fat in fine layers during fat transfer and structural grafting. The small round opening lays the finest thread of any injector in the range, which spreads the graft through more of the recipient tissue and suits sites where a deposit would be visible through thin skin.

Why choose a smaller opening if it fills more slowly?

Opening size sets thread diameter. A small opening lays a fine thread, so the same volume is spread across more passes and has more contact with living recipient tissue. Under thin skin that fineness is what separates a smooth result from a visible lump, and it is worth the extra time.

Is this cannula autoclavable?

Yes. The instrument is fully reusable and can be steam autoclaved at 134°C. Flush the lumen and opening with clean water immediately after use, before graft residue sets, and dry completely before sterilization.

Which fitting should I order?

All four fittings are Luer lock types. Standard Luer lock suits most grafting syringes; stainless steel Luer lock is for high sterilization throughput; Super Luer Lock has a larger bore for lower injection resistance; universal Luer lock seats across syringe brands where consumable stock varies.

What is the minimum order quantity for bulk orders?

The minimum order quantity is agreed per order rather than set at a fixed number. Send us the sizes, fittings and quantities you need through the wholesale request page and we will confirm the minimum for that specification.

Do you provide samples?

Yes. Samples are available on request and the buyer covers the shipping charges. Tell us the diameter and length you want to evaluate and we will confirm what can be sent. A sample also lets you run the steel hub through your own sterilization protocol before a bulk order.

Can I order a custom size?

Yes. Custom diameters, working lengths and opening configurations are available on request in addition to the standard size grid. Send your specification through the wholesale request page and our production team will confirm what can be produced.
