LMX 4 Topical Anesthetic Cream

This stuff is magic! Anytime I get a burn, I run for the LMX. Numbs the burned area within minutes. Truly a life saver. Takes very little to solve your problem! No need to douce wound with the cream.

I am 72 years old, and 100% needle phobic. I look at them I start to get sick to my stomach.......I can get myself in a frenzee just thinking about them. I become a mess. Well, I just had a heart valve replaced and my Dr. put me on Ozempic and Repatha.......both shots I have to give myself. Well, the Ozempic is bad enough getting the courage up to inject myself, and the Repatha, when I found out the needle is twice the size of the Ozempic, well............it threw me over the edge. The pen sat in my refrigerator for two weeks without the courage to give myself another shot. Enter LMX4. After using the LMX4 I got the courage to give myself the Repatha shot tonight. I FELT NOTHING. ZERO. I heard the click of the injection pen.........and nothing else. What a relief........HOME RUN. This stuff works and could not be happier.

TL:DR - Didn’t help with injection pain, weird skin reaction for days after application. I am terrified of needles and sensitive to pain. I had to start taking weekly injections about a month ago for a health issue and found them to be very painful which didn’t help with my anxiety about the needles. This product was recommended to me to help with the pain. I tested the cream out on a small spot on my arm for about 20 mins and didn’t have a reaction. When it was time for my injection, I applied the cream and let it sit for about 60 mins before wiping with alcohol swab and injecting mediation. The initial pick of the needle seemed slightly less painful, but I still felt everything, which I hate. The next morning I noticed red dots around the area and the following day there was a lot more redness and swelling only in the area where the cream was applied (see photo). I’ve taken the injections for five weeks without any issues so my only thought is that it’s the cream or a combination of the cream and the medication. The expiration date is 10/2025 and the lot number on the cream is 231838 in case anyone else has an issue as well.

Works great. I considered buying a cheaper option but this was recommended by our doctor. We use it for my son before he has a blood draw and it’s great

Great stuff

I used this in two instances and it took almost 2 hours to start working. I was trying to take out a splinter on my pinky from years ago and I'm fine with operating on myself but the numbing kicked in after I had already taken out the splinter. I waited an hour before doing anything and figured that this just did not work. After I took out the splinter, washed my hands, and played a few rounds of chess, my pinky started to get numb. I was not impressed. I then used this for laser hair removal on my arms. Laser hair removal isn't too painful on the arms but I wanted to see how effective this cream could be and this was also the cream that the beautician recommended. I used it 90 minutes beforehand and I didn't feel a difference. After the treatment, it kicked in. Compared to other creams, this one is also not as strong. I would recommend planning hours in advance and only use this for minor injuries and treatments.

funciona en 15 min ya hay inicio de desensibilizacion al dolor. obvio qu eal tacn}to no. bien lo probaremos en pacientes y les cuento.

I was very happy with the service from the vendor and would definitely order from them again. This cream was recommended to me by my dermatologist. I have been having skin tags removed. Getting stuck with the needle was worse than the actual removal. My doctor said this would help. I had another appointment today, and it worked great. The pain from the injections was greatly diminished and I hardly felt the needle prick. However, I do have a couple of complaints about this product. First, the price. The cheapest I could find it was on Amazon for 26.99. But that was cheap compared to the prices I found on other sites. Second, considering the price, the tube of product you receive is very tiny. The tube is 15 grams which is half an ounce! (one ounce = 30 grams) Second, I found the cap on this product very difficult to open. You have to press down and twist, which is not easy to do without squirting the cream all over the inside of the cap. It was also difficult to get the cap back on. I definitely intend to keep using lidocaine cream for my treatments. However, I will not be ordering this product again. I found a site that offers a similiar cream that comes in a much bigger size, for just a few dollars more. i will be ordering that instead. But despite the above complaints, this product does work.
