Can I take anything before the touch up procedure for pain when microblading?

charchar1212
It's been a little over two weeks since I got my brows microbladed.When I say it hurt, it REALLY hurt.My skin didn't react to the numbing cream. Even my esthetician said "usually the numbing cream turns white and you have know it's working,yours never did.You also have bled way more than anyone I've seen."it was pretty miserable.Is there anything I can take before my touch up appointment in a couple of weeks for the pain?I know they say not to take advil but the numbing cream did nothing for me!
