Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A new medical device, a patented flexible needle is described. The tip of the needle is blunt with a lateral hole and smooth rims. Flexibility is possible due to a very thin wall made of stainless steel. It enables us to inject into the skin most of the filling agents, with less traumatism compared to a classical sharp beveled needle.
