Liposuction Cannulas
A liposuction cannula is the hollow, tube-shaped instrument inserted through a small incision to break up and suction out fat during a liposuction procedure. Cannula choice — diameter, length, tip style, and pattern — directly affects how controlled and even the fat removal is, which is why surgeons typically stock several variants rather than one general-purpose tool.
What's in This Collection
This range includes several named liposuction cannula patterns favored across plastic surgery practice. The Entner Liposuction Cannula and Toledo Liposuction Cannula are general-purpose patterns suited to standard body-contouring work. The Kotzur Liposuction Cannula offers an alternative tip geometry for surgeons with a specific technique preference. The Gasparotti Liposuction Cannula is available in straight, 45°, and curved configurations, giving flexibility for reaching different tissue planes and body contours — the curved variant in particular suits areas needing a more contoured approach.
Beyond named patterns, cannulas are stocked across a range of diameters (1.7mm and other sizes), lengths (25cm, 30cm), and tip styles, including single-hole and multi-hole ("with hole") designs, so surgeons can match instrument to treatment area — finer cannulas for delicate zones like the chin or arms, larger diameters for higher-volume areas. If you're looking for a specific basket-tip or pyramid-tip cannula — terms used in the wider market for particular aperture shapes — check the variant options on individual product pages, as tip style isn't always broken out in the collection view.
For handling, the collection includes handles for cannulas (sold separately in several configurations) plus liposuction accessories: a Syringe Stand for Luer Lock for safe storage during syringe-assisted procedures, and a Stop Lock for Syringes to control aspiration. The V Dissector is a related but distinct tool — used for tunneling and tissue separation rather than fat aspiration itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a Gasparotti and a Toledo liposuction cannula?
Both are named cannula patterns used in body contouring; a Gasparotti cannula is available in straight, angled, and curved configurations for reaching different tissue planes, while a Toledo cannula is a more general-purpose pattern.
What size liposuction cannula should I use?
Cannula diameter and length are matched to the treatment area — finer, shorter cannulas for delicate zones like the chin or arms, and larger diameters for higher-volume areas like the abdomen or thighs.
Are these liposuction cannulas reusable or disposable?
These are reusable, autoclave-sterilizable stainless steel instruments rather than single-use disposable cannulas.
Is a VASER cannula the same as a standard liposuction cannula?
No. VASER liposuction uses ultrasonic-assisted probes, a different technology from the mechanical cannulas in this collection.
What's the difference between a liposuction needle and a cannula?
The terms are sometimes used loosely by patients, but a liposuction cannula is a blunt-tipped tube designed for tissue safety during fat removal, distinct from a sharp injection needle.
