An injection device for injecting a hypodermic syringe along an injection direction defining an injection axis, wherein said injecting device comprises:
- a housing for being positioned at the skin, said housing comprising:
- a tubular element having an upper opening;
- a movable element movably arranged relative to said housing between a retracted position and an injection position, said movable element comprising:
- a hypodermic syringe holder for holding a hypodermic syringe, a first portion arranged to slide inside said tubular element of said housing, a second portion arranged to slide outside said housing and a connection portion connecting said first portion with said second portion, wherein said movable element extends out of said upper opening of said tubular element;
- and
- an injection depth modifying element configured to modify the injection depth of the injection device,
- wherein said injection depth modifying element is movable relative to both said housing and said movable element and being attachable at a first position to said movable element, wherein when said injection depth modifying element is attached at said first position, the movable element is limited to be movable relative to the housing between the retracted position and an intermediate position whereby the injection depth is reduced.
