What are the pros/cons of each?
Clinicians & (some) patients have a preference of one over the other -- but why? What exactly are the considerations of using one tool over the other in terms of safety (less trauma to the penis, for example); accuracy & consistency of product placement (very important); overall patient aesthetic outcomes; clinician technique; etc.,

Does the type of product (PMMA vs HA, for example) factor into decisioning?
Additionally, former patients here who've had multiple rounds & perhaps experienced both (cannula/needle)... would be great hearing your perspective.

I have had both: cannula with HA and Bellafill, and HA with needles. My feeling is both can be done safely. However, I feel cannula is better for laying down the bulk of product because it is after with blunt tip, yet the needle is better for refinement at successive appts.

Safer not after, sorry

I prefer using a needle fo because it offers more precise filler placement. While some believe cannulas are safer, the truth is that filler is very safe when used properly—and a cannula can give a false sense of security. That said, skilled providers can get excellent results with both methods. In experienced hands, there’s not a major difference in safety or outcome. I would focus more on the treating physician and the product used. I think these are the key variables.

It seems with so much information learned over a decade+ regarding the cannula-vs-needle debate, it seems largely preferential. If maybe an Injector trained with one versus the other, they may very well stick with it due to comfort. While it is seemingly clear now that needles are efficacious in their uses for penile filler injections, I wouldn't fault some Injectors who opt for cannulas in their belief that it enhances the safety, even if negligibly. The way the filler is dispersed via cannula or needle can also be part of why I've concluded that this topic is ultimately a matter of Injector preference.

When seeking out a Practitioner, go with vetted Injectors & Physicians first, because both the quality of work and safety are going to be guaranteed, irrespective of their actual cannula-vs-needle preference. And in trusting a vetted Injector, don't request they use the device opposite of what they normally use (example: requesting a needle injector to use a cannula instead), because while they likely are capable of using both, their main preference is what they've mastered and will ensure you get optimal results.
