    At one time a used just my shoulders and built up quite a bit of scar tissue, you could see the lumps and everyone in the gym that knew anything knew what they were. I had to stop shooting my shoulders for probibly 6 months or more before i was able to shoot them again without this happening. Now i use multiple sites.

    ive got a set of scars like that on my shoulders also and i feel the same way about how they must appear. mine arent really lumps tho, they are more like discoloration. anyway.... they are not going away. they might have faded a bit, but i figure theyll be noticable for a couple of years.

    I wouldn't shoot anything anywhere in your shoulders until they go away.

    i dont shoot on top of the scars. i think the scars mostly came from a time when i was using 20g pins. the scars dont cover my whole shoulder area so i shoot around the scars. but yeah- i shoot alot more now into my glut and im going to start my quad again. i hate the quad because it seems to hurt the most of any location ive tried.

    I've heard that accupuncture therapy is supposed to get rid of scar tissue. When I got my shoulders X-rayed for bone spurs the scar tissue showed up on the film. Weird right.

    I use 22's because somebody told me that they don't leave scar tissue or something like that, so is that true? I tried using 25g 1 and a half inch, and it bent as soon as it hit my glut. So which needles are the best? I am not trying to jack your post bro.

    Does it not really come down to what YOU think is ideal... high guage versus low guage both offer their own benefits/detriments. 18 guage would obviously be more poainful but would provide quickest injection, 25 guage or far less painful but run the risk of being broken, and slower injection times for the oil to pass through.

    Is 23 better than 22? I tried a 25, and it bent as soon as it hit my glut.

    That is why I've never touched steroids . Scar tissue would spell the end of my illustrious modeling career.
