    Pin size for glute injections

    I have 23ga. 1" needles for glute injections. Is 1" long enough? Have any of you used 1" needles for injections?

    1.5 inch is the standard.

    1.0 inch would be too short for a certain injection. You would need a very skinny glute with low body fat.

    1.0 pins are used for quad and delt injections mostly.

    No bf is not very high in the ass but there is a layer of fat there. That's why i thought that 1" would be fine. How can i tell if 1" is not long enough after 1st injection?

    men generally have less fat in their glutes, you should be fine with that
    if you are unsure then use a 1.5

    good luck to you
