The process starts with a small, pen-like device called a jet injector that can be held in the hand of the anaesthesiologist. The device is loaded with the anesthetic, and a nozzle is used to aim the mist at the treatment area.
The mist is so fine that it can penetrate the skin and reach the nerve endings responsible for transmitting pain signals to the brain. This technology ensures that the patient can receive the anesthesia they need without experiencing the discomfort of a needle.
In addition to being less painful, needle-free anesthesia is also much faster than traditional anesthesia delivery methods. The mist can be applied in seconds, and the anesthetic takes effect almost immediately. This means that patients can spend less time in the operating room and can get back to their daily lives more quickly
