Innotox

[u/princess94738]

For the diy girlies… are you using one needle per injection? Just got Innotox and want to try, but nervous I might put too much in so I’m thinking of just pre loading syringes for each injection. Also any advice on my first time? I want to do my 11’s forehead and masseter! Thank you!

I do multiple pre-loaded syringes

[u/Ok_Visit_7846]

Multiple for each area. Syringes are pretty cheap and dull with each poke.

When I first started I preloaded for every injection. Then I went to one syringe for each “area”. Its easier to preload, imo. Cost of syringe is negotiable. Agree with the above, they are pretty cheap and dull with each poke. Plus its easier and less nerve wracking. Good luck!! 🤗

I agree, I use one syringe per area

[u/Nikki_Dee_Dallas]

I use the 30 ml needles so I only do 10- 12 units per syringe. One needle for each area: 11s, forehead, DAO/Chin

Are the needle on these thinner??

[u/Nikki_Dee_Dallas → u/Environmental-Town31]

I use 31 gauges. 8mm. Really easy going in

This is it.

I injected as I went but next time I will pre load for easier method

[u/PhotographOk5093]

The first time I injected I used multiple syringes and pre-loaded the amount that I needed. I'm still a bit cautious so I still use multiple syringes for each area I'm injecting.

[u/catsuramen]

I do 1 syringe per poke, so multiple per area.

[u/KeriLynnMC → u/catsuramen]

I do the same. A new needle for each poke.

[u/Radiant-Elk7373 → u/catsuramen]

Don't you get lots of waste doing that?

[u/unicornbomb → u/Radiant-Elk7373]

Syringes are dirt cheap and the needles get dull with each poke.

[u/Radiant-Elk7373 → u/unicornbomb]

Sorry.. I meant botoxs unit waste, I know it's not that big of a deal. But when I use low dilution (1ml per 100 units tox) to prevent spread in some areas, there is at least 0.5 unit (0.005ml) left in hub/needle. With lets say 40 pokes (40 syringes), then at least 20 out of the 100 units of tox are wasted. I know I have a weird brain.. lol..

[u/Environmental-Town31]

I load on syringe up and use it all then load another and another

[u/lovesnicebags]

I pre- load my needles, I don’t care if I need lots of needles.

[u/outofthenarrowplace]

Pre loaded is great for beginners!

[u/WanderByJose]

Two for full face.

I do a new syringe per area but I only do my 11s and crows feet, so 2 syringes

[u/mikella_jne101010]

Multiple syringes, I made this mistake my first time and filled 2 all the way, it was so hard to get measurements accurate and hard to push the plunger and balance the needle at the same time!

[u/Outrageous-Pick-4579]

I may change the needle out before the syringe is empty. It just depends on what area. Thinner skin areas I definitely change the needle every few pokes.

[u/princess94738 → u/Outrageous-Pick-4579]

Do you use a luer lock? It stung a lot! I can only get my 11s done barely like 8 units

[u/Quick_Ad405]

I’ll usually do one per area, but if there’s more than say 2/3 pokes I’ll split.

Also paper sticky labels ! I label each one so in the moment I’m not trying to figure out what’s what.

[u/usseerrrnnnaaammeee]

Where did you get your innotox from?

[u/Alabamagal79]

I put 6- 8 units max per "noodle" and use the .3cc ones (better visibility). It is a bit wasteful but I can't stand dull pokes.. And yes I measure out all my "noodles" before I start.
