    Hi,

    What type of needles/brand of needles are you using? I was using serins but saw that to activate Wei level you can’t use silicon coated needles? What brand/size of needles is everyone using? Thx, Brian

    Hi Brian,

    You’d basically want to use non-coated needles along with metal coiled handles with the little bulb at the tip. If you have seen or worked with Carbo needles, those would be the ones if you happen to be in North America. In Europe there is another brand. I tend to go with 0.22-0.25mm gauge. No plastic handles!

    I think there some previous posts on this topic in the “General” section as well, so there maybe more info there.
