MEDICAL GRADE NUMBING CREAM FOR MED SPAS
Compound numbing cream engineered for aesthetic procedures. Faster onset, deeper penetration, longer duration — so your patients stay comfortable and your schedule stays on track.
WHY COMPOUND NUMBING OUTPERFORMS CONSUMER-GRADE
Every med spa owner knows the math: patient comfort drives rebooking. When a patient experiences pain during fillers or microneedling, they hesitate to return. They leave negative reviews. They cancel follow-ups. Consumer-grade numbing creams with 4-5% Lidocaine cannot deliver the depth or duration that aesthetic procedures demand, and your patients feel the difference.
MediCaine is a compound numbing cream formulated specifically for medical-grade procedures. Multi-agent formulas combine up to four anesthetic agents — Benzocaine, Lidocaine, Tetracaine, and Prilocaine — with Phenylephrine as a vasoconstrictor to reduce bleeding and localize the anesthetic effect. The result is onset in as little as 15 minutes, depth that reaches dermal and subdermal layers, and duration extending up to five hours.
For nurse injectors and aestheticians performing back-to-back procedures, compound numbing eliminates the single biggest variable in patient satisfaction. Comfortable patients rebook. They refer friends. They leave five-star reviews. Your numbing cream is not a line item — it is a growth investment.
THE RIGHT NUMBING FOR EVERY PROCEDURE
Different aesthetic procedures target different tissue depths and involve different pain profiles. Here is how MediCaine matches each treatment in your practice.
DERMAL FILLERS
Lip fillers, cheek augmentation, jawline contouring, nasolabial folds, and under-eye treatments all involve needle penetration into sensitive facial tissue. The lips in particular are among the most nerve-dense areas of the body. Apply MediCaine 15-20 minutes before injection. The vasoconstrictor component (Phenylephrine) reduces bruising at injection sites — a significant advantage for filler patients who want minimal downtime. For lip fillers, recommend MediCaine Ultra with its quad-agent formula for maximum comfort through the vermilion border.
BOTOX AND NEUROMODULATORS
While Botox injections are relatively quick, many patients — especially first-timers — have significant anxiety about needle pain in the forehead, crow's feet, and glabellar areas. A thin layer of MediCaine Pro applied 15 minutes before treatment eliminates the sting entirely. This is particularly valuable for patients receiving treatment across multiple facial zones in a single session. The rapid onset of the BLT formula means you do not lose chair time to numbing.
MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling creates thousands of micro-channels across the treatment area, and without proper numbing, patients will not tolerate the depths needed for collagen induction therapy. Consumer-grade numbing fades halfway through a full-face treatment. MediCaine's extended duration — up to five hours with the Ultra — means you can treat the face, neck, and decolletage in a single session without reapplication. For standard microneedling at 0.5-1.0mm depths, Pro provides excellent coverage. For aggressive treatments at 1.5-2.5mm, step up to Ultra.
CHEMICAL PEELS
Medium and deep chemical peels (TCA, Jessner, phenol) produce intense burning and stinging that many patients find intolerable without pre-treatment numbing. Apply MediCaine 20 minutes before the peel solution. The surface-level Benzocaine in the Pro and Ultra formulas provides immediate relief from the initial acid contact, while the deeper-acting Lidocaine and Tetracaine maintain comfort as the peel penetrates into the dermis.
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal across large body areas — bikini line, legs, underarms, back — requires numbing that lasts the full duration of treatment. Sessions can run 30-60 minutes for larger zones. MediCaine Elite with its high-concentration 30% Lidocaine provides reliable, long-lasting numbing across broad surface areas. For sensitive zones like the bikini area, upgrade to Ultra for maximum pain blockade.
PRP AND VAMPIRE FACIAL
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatments combine microneedling with plasma application, doubling the discomfort of standard microneedling alone. The extended treatment time and multiple passes required for proper PRP infusion demand numbing that will not fade mid-procedure. MediCaine Ultra delivers the longest duration in our lineup — up to five hours — giving you complete flexibility to work at the pace the treatment demands.
MORPHEUS8 AND RF MICRONEEDLING
Morpheus8 and other radiofrequency microneedling devices penetrate deeper than standard microneedling — often 3-4mm into subdermal tissue — and deliver thermal energy that amplifies patient discomfort. This is one of the most pain-intensive non-surgical aesthetic procedures. MediCaine Ultra is the clear choice here. The quad-agent formula with Prilocaine as the fourth pathway ensures comprehensive nerve blockade across all tissue depths that RF energy reaches.
MONALISA TOUCH
Vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments require numbing of highly sensitive mucosal tissue. MediCaine is available in both cream and ointment formulations — the ointment base adheres better to mucosal surfaces and provides more consistent coverage for internal applications. Discuss with your compounding pharmacist which formulation best suits your MonaLisa Touch protocol. Call (310) 889-0733 for guidance.
SINGLE-USE PACKETS VS SHARED JARS
In a med spa environment, cross-contamination is a real liability. Multi-use jars of numbing cream introduce risk every time a gloved hand or spatula enters the container. Even with best practices, jar-based numbing cream degrades with repeated air exposure, losing potency over days and weeks.
MediCaine single-use packets eliminate these concerns entirely. Each packet contains a precisely measured dose — one packet per patient, no cross-contamination, no guesswork on application amount, no degraded product from an open jar sitting on the treatment cart. For practices subject to health department inspections or pursuing accreditation, single-use packaging demonstrates a higher standard of infection control.
For practices that prefer bulk supply, MediCaine also ships in airless pump bottles that prevent air exposure and oxidation while allowing controlled dispensing. Both formats are compounded fresh per order and shipped directly to your practice.
ZERO CROSS-CONTAMINATION
One patient, one packet. No shared containers between procedures.
CONSISTENT DOSING
Pre-measured packets eliminate over- or under-application. Every patient gets the same effective dose.
