mylife Clickfine DiamondTip Discover your pen needle
Short pen needles Reliable subcutaneous injection
To achieve a good insulin dose effect it is essential to inject the insulin into the subcutaneous fatty tissue (subcutaneous injection) and not into the underlying muscle. Injecting insulin into the muscle can lead to unexplained fluctuations in blood glucose values as well as to severe hypoglycaemia.
- Short pen needles reduce the risk of inadvertent injections into the muscle.
- 4 mm and 5 mm pen needles simplify the injection technique. Injections can often be given at a 90 degree angle without forming a skin fold (children, adolescents and slim adults should form skin folds).1
4 mm and 5 mm pen needles often permit safe subcutaneous injections even without forming a skin fold. Follow the recommendations given by your diabetes advisor.
Long pen needles increase the risk of injecting into the muscle.
Skin (epidermis and dermis)
Subcutaneous fatty tissue (subcutis)

DiamondTip – the perfect needle tip For a particularly gentle injection2
The mylife Clickfine DiamondTip pen needle with its innovative 6-bevel technology has a slimmer needle tip and thus less resistance during injection.
DiamondTip: high-precision 6-bevel pen needle tip 1 – 6.
Available in 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm and 8 mm lengths.
Injection force in N
The test shows that injections with mylife Clickfine DiamondTip require less effort compared to a competitor product.2
The mylife Clickfine DiamondTip with the innovative 6-bevel technology:
The fine needle tip has 4 bevels on the upper side and 2 bevels on the lower side. Cutting from two sides in combination with the cutting angles, makes the pen needle more pointed and sharper in comparison. The result is a gentle and smooth injection.
