Lmx Topical Anesthetic Cream 15g

I am 72 years old, and 100% needle phobic. I look at them I start to get sick to my stomach.......I can get myself in a frenzee just thinking about them. I become a mess. Well, I just had a heart valve replaced and my Dr. put me on Ozempic and Repatha.......both shots I have to give myself. Well, the Ozempic is bad enough getting the courage up to inject myself, and the Repatha, when I found out the needle is twice the size of the Ozempic, well............it threw me over the edge. The pen sat in my refrigerator for two weeks without the courage to give myself another shot. Enter LMX4. After using the LMX4 I got the courage to give myself the Repatha shot tonight. I FELT NOTHING. ZERO. I heard the click of the injection pen.........and nothing else. What a relief........HOME RUN. This stuff works and could not be happier.

This was recommended to me years ago to use prior to laser hair removal sessions and I’ve since used it for various other procedures such as microneedling, microcurrent, high frequency, and tattooing. It’s expensive, yes, but it will numb the hell outta anywhere it’s applied and keep it numb for a good while. You need to apply at least 30 minutes prior to whatever procedure and I put just enough to cover the entire area and leave and thin layer before washing or wiping off immediately before whatever procedure. A little bit really does go a long way. I have zero pain tolerance but unfortunately I also enjoy many painful things and this works great!

recently used today and it did not work at all.

If you have a needle phobia, then this is what you should use. I prep my arm about an hour before I have to have blood drawn. I frequently get questioned by the person who is about to draw my blood but that is a small price to pay for the comfort of knowing that I can get through the whole experience without freaking out. The tube lasts a long time since you only have to use a small amount. This is my second tube and I used the first one for way over a year and it still wasn't empty. I just felt that a fresh tube might be needed. You do have to cover the cream on your skin for it to work. I have used various things as covers including very large bandages to Saran Wrap. I can't recommend this enough.

I am having electroysis hair removal done, I had had my eyebrows done 20 years ago, and found out that the laser hair removal treatments do not work on grey hair. So for my chin hairs I developed PMP, I went back to electrolysis. My husband was so happy with the results he offered to pay for my legs to be done. Apparently my legs are far more sensitive than my face, and it was nearly unbearable. so I researched on line the best otc topical anesthetic and it said LMX 4 - 5 % strength was recommended for use for prep for electrolysis. I bought this product, and was amazed if you follow the directions, I barely felt what she was doing at all. it was amazing, and perfect. I spread some on thinly to the treatment area, after cleansing area with Bactine. Then waited 15 minutes, reapplied a more generous amount to the same area and wrapped it in plastic. The directions said wait 30 minutes before treatment, since it is a 30 minute drive to where I have it done. I removed the wrap just before going in. I showed her which area I had treated and if she went outside the numbed area I could tell A BIG difference. The product came promtly and did everything it was suppose to do. I couldn't have been happier!
