Pin Pricks & Summer [I Have Diabetes]

I'm a T1/3c diabetic, and insulin-dependent. I inject up to 7-8 times a day.
My thighs and stomach area can be covered with tiny pin pricks. I wondered if anyone has found a way to reduce these? I moisturise the injection areas daily but the little marks still remain. With the summer coming, I don't really want the marks visible wearing speedos!

Type 2 diabetic here in the States. Is time release insulin an option for you. I shoot myself twice a day with Levimir. Costs me $70 a month.

@Colormegone I was taken off Levimir and now use Tresiba for the basal, and Novorapid for bolus.
