Injectable cosmetic treatments can be uncomfortable for some patients. Luckily, there is an easy and convenient way to make your treatment more comfortable: topical numbing creams. Numbing creams are effective at reducing discomfort. If you are interested in getting dermal fillers, book a consultation with Livio and we can discuss numbing cream options and methods.
Dermal fillers injected into the skin to restore volume. Dermal fillers typically made of hyaluronic acid, naturally found in the body. When used on the lips, these fillers create a fuller appearance. However, they also cause the lips to swell, and patients may experience discomfort. Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, added to the fillers to reduce the pain associated with the injection, but often that is not enough.
Although numbing creams are effective, they can take a few minutes to work. Your appointment time builds in numbing time, so no need to come early. Depending on the type of procedure, it can take anywhere from 10-15 minutes for the cream to work.
