You can use aluminium foil as a needle stopper. if you know how thick your aluminium foil is you can adjust the needle length by putting multiple small pieces around your needle.

As for needling at an angle, you can't needle vertically and at an angle at the same time. You have to insert the needle at an angle. If you were to insert it vertically and then push it an angle you would probably damage your skin.

Ok, this maybe sound dumb, but i don't understand the first part. You measure the needle for let's say 1 mm and at that point you are putting the foil on the needle? So that you can poke just 1 mm into the scar?

I assumed you were talking about a single needle (one that is meant for single-needling)with a certain length and you wanted it to be shorter so that it wouldn't go as deep. But reading it again I realize you may have meant something different. Did you mean using a regular needle and you want to know how to stop it from going to deep? In that case.. I don't know. Just please don't use a sewing needle, it's too big.
