I heard that the nerves in the cheeks are usually at least 9 mm deep, so an 8 mm needle shouldn't hit them. But since I'm somewhat lean, I heard that the nerves can be closer to the surface in people with low body fat. Is there any risk of hitting a nerve or artery with an 8 mm needle in that case? I am probably just overthinking it
This is what ai told me

Don’t fear monger I legit hit an actual vein and nothing happened. Just use a 31 gauge 5/16 inch needle for injections. If ur still nervous just aspirate before injecting

I’ve injected my malar fat pad my hyoid my buccal fat pad and even got a little fun with it injecting into the area of my ramus to give it the illusion of being elongated. Worst thing happened was blood shot out for a second and numbing

Finally could log in. The session was chill it didn't even really hurted, but I only injected 1,8ml in total. I was quite nervous and I couldn't do much points only did 9 per cheek because my face is tiny. The next time I will atleast do 2ml per cheek and try to do more points. Maybe inject in more dangerous areas closer to my lips.

Aspirating is important. You could fuck up bad if you inject fat dissolver into a blood vessel.

You think so? I thought aspirating was important, correct me if im wrong though
Outdated technique, especially in the filler world where they legit go bone deep compared to just subcutaneous injections. I hit the actual face line vein n I was fine

Can I do my second aqualyx session with bad liver levels. My GPT (ALAT) is 81 and it was before my first aqualyx session. So could be even higher by now, and can I get away with only waiting 2-3 weeks until the next session. And can I use my opened vial or should I use a new one.


Maybe try to get new blood work sooner have it in 8 weeks agian.
