Two protocol rules matter more than the exact number you pick: Empty stomach
Key considerations for love handle injections include: Adequate subcutaneous tissue depth Absence of excessive scarring or skin changes Proper technique according to the Instructions for Use Individual body composition and comfort with accessing this area Avoiding areas that may be irritated by clothing or belt lines There is no evidence suggesting that injection in the lateral abdominal area produces different efficacy or safety outcomes compared to other approved sites, provided proper subcutaneous technique is maintained
