Dr. Numb Tattoo Numbing Cream - 5% Lidocaine Topical Anesthetic Cream - Maximum Strength Pain Relief Cream for Painless Tattoos, Piercing, Waxing & Hemorrhoid Treatment - 2oz (1)

I have been using Dr. Numb for 6 months for work done on by legs. I pat a thick layer on the area to be inked, and wrap with plastic wrap at least 2 hours before tattooing begins. It takes away 100% of the pain for the first hour, and then starts to fade after that. After 2 hours, the numbing affect has completely worn off. But it sure does work for the first 2 hours! I won't get tattoos without this product!

This stuff works wonders. Got a tattoo and felt nothing during the 2 hour duration. Then it really helped during the "itchy" phase of healing

I ordered Dr Numb for a chest piece I had done. In preparation for the first session, I applied Dr Numb an hour and a half before my scheduled appointment. I layered the product on heavily (using the entire contents of the jar) and wrapped myself in plastic wrap. 2 hours into the tattoo session the cream had worn off. However while it was numb, my experience was wonderful and pain free. I tapped out after 7 total hours.I reordered the product with hopes of better results the next time around.For my second session I applied a thinner but wider layer of Dr Numb two full hours before my appointment, also wrapped in plastic wrap. The numb lasted just over an hour into that session. Since I hadn't used the entire contents of the jar this time around I had my tattoo artist apply a second coat of cream after three hours of tattooing. We waited 30 minutes after application to continue our session. I was comfortable for the next 30-45 minutes. The remainder of the tattoo was spent holding my breath and closing my eyes waiting for it to be over.My ending comments, while the skin was numb it was completely painless. There was some redness to the skin but nothing concerning. I do feel the claims of hours upon hours of numbing is a gross exaggeration. I do feel like if you're getting a small piece of work done this would be great. Larger pieces will require multiple jars and multiple applications throughout for that comfortable experience. There were brief moments where there were zaps of pain but it wasn't unbearable. I do wish it was a large quantity.

I’ve been using this numbing cream for over a year for my tattoos. I started using it on the inner side of my upper arm, to my shoulder, collar bone, back of neck and down my back. I love this product. I’ve tried other numbing creams, but this is the best in my opinion. Pro tip, if you’re on your period or have a really low pain tolerance, try leaving it on a little bit longer. I do about 30 mins wrapped with saran wrap, but on those bad days I’ll do 45mins, and sometimes an hour. Worth the money. :))

This jar of numbing cream arrived quickly and well packaged. It is a 2 ounce jar that has a childproof lid. The cream is a lotion like consistency, not thick, and applies easily. It doesn’t have a repulsive or overpowering smell like many of these creams do, and it did not cause any kind of reaction or irritation on my sensitive skin. You will need to follow the application directions by applying a thick layer, cover with plastic wrap, wait 30-50 minutes then gently wipe away and you’re ready to proceed. It does in fact work to numb the skin, but just how effective it is and how long it lasts will greatly depend on you application of the cream, the wait process, the location it was applied to, the reason it was needed, and the individuals body to metabolize topicals as well as their own pain tolerance. How long the jar will last greatly depends on the intended use. If your using for small areas then it will definitely last quite a while but if it is used on much larger portions of skin then you wont get many uses from the single jar. The price point for this is high, very high compared to other similar products on the market. Overall, this can work very well for a wide variety of different uses but it definitely needs to be priced more competitively. Would recommend if priced appropriately.

Funciona exelente dejar aplicada por 1 hora 20 minutos y estaras muy satisfecho.

This does not work for 4-6 hours. Vasocaine is the best stuff I've found out there it actually works. But this Dr.Numb stuff is a huge rip off take your money else where I damn near used the whole jar and still no numbness felt the whole entire tattoo. Take my advice I literally used it 4 or 5 days ago. BUY SOMETHING ELSE

The best numbing cream on the market for tattoos. Did a leg piece and didn’t feel a thing.
