Is it common for a provider to ask the patient to numbing cream at home an hour before the procedure?

I scheduled a bbl laser treatment with a dr who I had a short consult with about something else. Their coordinator prescribed numbing cream with barely any directions to apply prior to the procedure then add plastic wrap. Upon following up about if the plastic wrap could enable toxicity etc she just said not to use it but didn’t address my questions.
