1. General Description

The 0.18 mm × 15 mm Chinese medicine needle is engineered for precision and patient comfort in traditional acupuncture practices. With its ultra-fine diameter (0.18 mm), the needle offers minimal insertion sensation, making it ideal for sensitive patients, pediatric acupuncture, or areas with delicate tissue.

The 15 mm length provides additional reach compared with shorter microsystem needles, while still supporting superficial to moderate-depth needling. Its siliconized surface ensures effortless insertion and withdrawal, while the plastic handle provides excellent grip for stability during meridian balancing, wrist-ankle therapy, and energy-flow regulation techniques.

Each needle is individually sterilized and single-use, ensuring maximum hygiene and compliance with global medical standards.
