TSK STERIGLIDE™ Cannula Laboratory: TSK Laboratory

• Category: Medical Device / Aesthetic Cannula.
• Main Use: Injections of dermal fillers and biorevitalization.

🔍 General Description

The TSK STERIGLIDE™ cannula is considered the gold standard in the aesthetic cannula market. It was developed to address the limitations of traditional cannulas (lack of precision, difficulty penetrating, inadequate flexibility). It combines a patented geometric design and a unique surface treatment to optimize patient comfort and practitioner precision.

⚙️ Technical Specifications & Innovations

1. Surface Coating (Glide Technology)

• Specific Feature: The cannula benefits from an exclusive, patented surface treatment.
• Performance: This coating reduces friction by up to 50% compared to traditional cannulas.
• Result: Much smoother tissue penetration, requiring less force from the practitioner, thus improving maneuverability and comfort.

2. Tip Design (The Dome Shape)

• Shape: A patented dome-shaped tip.
• Advantage: Unlike tips that are too rounded (which slide sideways without penetrating) or too sharp (which cause trauma), this design offers the right balance. The cannula creates less resistance upon entry and reduces the risk of hematomas.

3. Orifice Position (Nearest to Tip)

• Design: The product outlet orifice is positioned as close as possible to the tip of the cannula.
• Benefit: This ensures greater deposition accuracy. The practitioner knows exactly where the product is being delivered, avoiding the misalignment often seen with standard cannulas where the orifice is located further from the tip.

4. Identification and Ergonomics

• Base: Made of hard polymer to prevent deformation under pressure (unlike flexible bases).
• Marking: Clear markings on the base indicate the orientation of the side port (CIG - Clear Side Port Marking) for continuous visual monitoring.

✅ Key Benefits

For the Practitioner For the Patient

• Maximum precision thanks to the port being close to the tip.
• Reduced pain thanks to easier gliding (less friction).
• Improved maneuverability and control of the movement.
• Reduced risk of hematomas (less tissue trauma).
• No product loss thanks to the rigid base.</span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;">
• Increased comfort during the procedure.

❓ FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

1. What differentiates the Steriglide™ cannula from a standard steel cannula?

The main difference lies in TSK's exclusive coating and the shape of the tip. The Steriglide™ offers up to 50% more glide, which significantly reduces the force required to insert the cannula and navigate under the skin.

2. Why is the outlet positioned so close to the tip?

TSK designed the "Nearest to Tip" outlet to improve accuracy. With conventional cannulas, the product sometimes exits several millimeters before the end of the cannula, resulting in inaccurate placement. The Steriglide ensures that the product is deposited precisely where the tip of the cannula is felt.

3. Is the cannula flexible or rigid?

The Steriglide™ is designed with an ideal balance of flexibility and rigidity. It is made of high-quality steel patented by TSK, allowing for smooth navigation through tissues without excessive bending, ensuring the cannula goes exactly where the practitioner intends.

4. What is the purpose of the marking on the cannula hub?

The hub has a visual marker that indicates the orientation of the outlet. This allows the practitioner to know at all times whether the product is being injected upwards (towards the dermis) or downwards (towards the periosteum), which is crucial for safety and the aesthetic outcome.

5. Is the Dome Tip sharp?

No, it's a cannula, so the tip is blunt (not sharp). However, TSK's patented "dome" shape is slightly more tapered than conventional round tips. This allows for easier insertion through ligaments and fibrous tissues without cutting them, thus reducing trauma compared to a blunt tip.
