Re: sculptra local anesthetic

Bet your ass he's doin something wrong. I can't imagine not using some form of anesthesia, i'd be howling from the rafters. As Steve said in a later post, both his and my docs have you fill a prescription for Lidocaine from which they apply about half a tube for about 15 min before the doc starts in with the needles. No anesthesia? OUCH.

cheers and good luck

OK, I've had three treatments so far, and they haven't numbed my face at all. I just suffer through the injections, some bleeding, and can feel every movement of the needle under my skin. I'm this plastic surgeons first Sculptra recipient, is he doing something wrong?
