What is DrNumb numbing cream?
Well it's a topical anesthetic that must be applied to the skin up to 1 hour or more before the tissue is to be worked on. Here's what they won't tell you. This and any other topical anesthetic must be absorbed by the skin, this will bloat the tissue because the tissue is very much like a sponge and will absorb this chemical soup to cause the anesthetic action to occur. Now for some procedures it's fine like waxing or laser treatments, but for tattooing and body piercing the bloating effect screws up the tissue. It will not allow the tissue to accept pigments as well nor does it allow piercings to be placed correctly due to the bloating. Don't get sucked into doing anything to your skin before you talk to your tattoo artist or your professional body piercer. We have worked for years to provide you with the best training and skills available, we are good at what we do and our services are next to painless. At fifty bucks a tube it's a rip off and not worth the money for something that didn't need it in the first place.
