Periorbital Treatments: Palpebromalar grooves with Cannula (Inferior Approach)

Red background

Overview

The correction of palpebromalar grooves can be of great importance when trying to ameliorate the signs of facial aging. This can be done with a needle-based injection approach or with a cannula-based approach. The latter has an increased safety profile due to the use of a blunt-tipped device and because of the use of the ligamentous anatomy to guide product placement. Learn in this video about the cannula-based injection technique in a vertical approach coming from inferior.
