Tommy cannulas, also known as tumescent cannulas or Klein cannulas, are a specialized type of cannula that is used in tumescent liposuction, which is a popular technique for performing liposuction. Tumescent liposuction involves injecting a large volume of diluted local anesthetic solution (known as tumescent fluid) into the targeted area of fat before the actual liposuction procedure. The tumescent fluid helps to numb the area, minimize bleeding, and facilitate the removal of fat.
Tommy cannulas are typically smaller in diameter compared to traditional liposuction cannulas and have multiple small side ports or perforations near the tip. These side ports allow for the infiltration of tumescent fluid into the surrounding fatty tissue and facilitate the suction-assisted removal of the emulsified fat during liposuction.
Tommy cannulas are designed to be used with tumescent liposuction technique and are commonly used in liposuction procedures for various body areas, including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and other areas where excess fat needs to be removed.
It's important to note that the use of cannulas or any medical instrument in liposuction or any surgical procedure should be performed by a qualified and experienced healthcare professional who is well-trained in liposuction techniques and patient safety. Proper sterile techniques, patient selection, and postoperative care should be followed to minimize risks and complications associated with the procedure. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional for specific guidance and information related to liposuction procedures and the use of Tommy cannulas or any other surgical instruments.
