What gauge do you use?

[Smokescreen]

Mously just personal preferences I guess, no other reasoning behind it execpt avoiding scartissue when doing more local injections i.e. Biceps with 25G. Most of the time when blasting, I'm using just 23G pins, but if I'm doing several ED ijections, and have to constantly rotate injection spots, I will also use 25G pins. Even when injecting 2-3 ml at once, just got inject very slowly, especialy to smaller muscles. ( no, I don't iject 3 ml's in my biceps,lol! ;-) )

I'm injecting every single day. I usually just go for delts and glutes. Already getting bad scarring in my delts.

Solution? Instead of using 21guage, switch over to now 25gauge? Remember, I'm injecting up 2cc's of oil.

25g 1.5 glutes
23g 1 delts, quads

Not a fan of quad shots though.

Why a thicker gauge for delts and finer one for glutes?

I used to go with a 21 but now I draw with a 21 and shoot with a 23... Just quads and glutes, I tried lats delts calves and biceps but ended up with more discomfort than it was worth....

Yea, I would try to go few gauges thinner... I used to pin with 21G or 22G all the time to every spot I was using, and also ended up with fair amount of scartissue in those sites. If you are like me and think 25G is abit too thin, (they work well for some injections, but are not very convenient when injecting 2-3 cc's/ml's of oil) I would def. rec. to give a try to 23G, good option between too big, and too thin. They have served me well, and now I use my old 22G pins only for drawing.

25G 1.5" for thighs.

You inject 3mls with a 25 gauge?

Yes sometimes up to 4 times per week. It's not a big deal.

Always 25g 1 inch for larger volumes and if doing cruise doses then I use slin pins.

Damn! That thin?! For oil injections? How much oil? Because I'm shooting up with 2ccs of oil.

I rarely shoot more than 1.5 cc's at a time. I have never had a problem with anything that I have ever run.
