The vaccine or medication is forced under pressure through a tiny, synthetic sapphire orifice just .008″, .010″ or .012″ in diameter. The pressurized medication exits in a thin jet with sufficient force to enter the skin. By adjusting the pressure, injections are placed at a pre- selected depth including intradermal, subcutaneous and intramuscular.
