Hi,Sreekalaji,
Thanks for query,
To avoid scarring and pigmentation go on changing the site of injection.
There are various sites where you can take prick one by one so that it takes about 5-7 days coming same site.
Places are,Abdomen,shoulder,both thighs,
in abdomen there are four sites at different areas.
So try these and you wont get pigmentation and proper absorption.
ok and bye.
I find this answer helpful
