We begin by applying topical numbing cream to desensitize the treatment area for a few minutes. Then, using an injection pen designed specifically for the delivery of filler, the doctor or nurse who performs your procedure will gently inject several small amounts around the treatment area. The needle is very tiny and the insertions are only about 2 mm in depth. The filler has built-in lidocaine which will quickly numb the area further Then many tiny injections points will be administered. Most people find the treatment quite comfortable and some say they can’t feel it at all.
