I am thinking of getting a liquid facelift. Are injectables painful?
Answer: Liquid facelift, fillers, injectables, pain management, Everyone experiences pain differently but there are numerous measures that can be taken to make patients feel as comfortable as possible. Many practices use ice packs, topical numbing and even Pronox (laughing gas) to alleviate discomfort during the injection process.

Answer: Pain of Injectables and Liquid Facelift Hi and thank you for your question! While pain is a subjective matter, we normally numb the treated areas and there is minimal pain and discomfort for most filler injections. Use of cannula for injecting filler can also significantly reduce pain. Botox and other neuromodulators are injected more superficially and using very fine needles, so the pain and discomfort tend to be even less, to the point that it can be done for most without numbing. I hope it helps and good luck!

Answer: Injectable treatments are not overly painful This is a question many patients ask me. Fortunately, most of those patients find injectable treatments are much more comfortable than they expect and worth the momentary discomfort to achieve stellar rejuvenation results. There are steps your provider can also take to increase your comfort during treatment, including topical numbing cream and ice before your injections. Many of the filler formulations also contain the numbing agent lidocaine, which further enhances your treatment experience. If you are nervous, I encourage you to share your concerns with your provider so that the two of you can determine the best approach to your treatment session. Good luck!

Answer: Do Injectables Hurt? Most Injectables (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella, Voluma) Contain Anesthetic Solution Pain thresholds vary by patient, but most men and women do not find injectable dermal fillers, such as Restylane, Juvederm, and Volbella, to be particularly painful. We try and perform injection techniques that minimize any pain as well as the number of needle sticks. Almost all injectable dermal fillers contain the anesthetic lidocaine in the formulation that makes the injections less uncomfortable.

Answer: Numbing Agents Before Injectables to Reduce Pain Thank you for the question. It depends on a person's pain tolerance, but fillers are usually very tolerable with just topical numbing cream. Several brands have liodcaine in the produce such as voluma and juvederm to help with pain. For more information please visit our webpage.
