Is it painful?
-
30 minutes prior to your laser treatment, Dr. Jacobs would like you to apply an over the counter topical anesthetic called LMX 5%. Patients may complain of mild pain, which includes slight rubberband-like snapping or stinging sensations. LMX 5% minimizes this discomfort and makes your laser therapy much more pleasant and easier to tolerate. Pick up LMX 5% at our office or at the pharmacy before your appointment.
