Hi doctors! My name is Jennifer and my pain tolerance is extremely low! I'm super sensitive to needles and I tend to get really nervous and scared! I live in Los Angeles and I'm looking for a doctor who can make me feel really comfortable about getting my lips done and someone who can literally numb everything, whether I have to use a numbing cream, and a topical anesthetic. Please let me know what I can do and who I can see.
