Harvester Cannula
A Harvester Cannula is a specialized liposuction instrument designed specifically for the gentle and efficient removal (harvesting) of adipose tissue for autologous fat transfer (fat grafting). Unlike standard liposuction cannulas focused on aspiration, harvester cannulas are engineered to minimize trauma to fat cells (adipocytes). They typically feature a blunt tip, a single distal port or specially designed side ports, and an optimal diameter to preserve fat cell viability, ensuring a high-quality graft for procedures like facial rejuvenation, breast augmentation, and body contouring.
Key Features:
-
Blunt, Rounded Tip:Â For atraumatic passage through tissue to protect adipocytes and reduce bleeding.
-
Optimized Port Design:Â Often a single distal port or gentle side ports to reduce shear stress on fat cells.
-
Gentle Aspiration:Â Used with low-pressure suction to preserve fat cell integrity.
-
Ideal for Fat Grafting:Â Harvests fat with high viability for reinjection in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.
-
Variety of Sizes:Â Available in multiple lengths and diameters for different donor sites (e.g., abdomen, thighs).
-
Luer Lock Connection:Â Compatible with standard liposuction tubing and fat processing systems.
Harvest high-quality fat grafts with maximized cell survival. The Harvester Cannula from Medic instrument provides the specialized design needed for successful fat collection in autologous fat transfer procedures.
