How to use Painfree numbing cream

  1. 1

    Clean the skin

    Wash and dry the area you are treating so the cream can absorb evenly.

  2. 2

    Apply a thick layer

    Spread a generous layer over the area — do not rub it in. Cover with cling film to keep it active.

  3. 3

    Wait 45–90 minutes

    Leave the cream on for 45–90 minutes before your appointment, depending on how deep the numbing needs to be.

  4. 4

    Wipe off and start

    Remove the film, wipe the skin clean and let your artist or therapist begin. Expect 2–4 hours of reduced sensation.

What Painfree is used for

Tattoos

Longer sittings and detailed shading become far easier to sit through, for both first-timers and large pieces.

Laser treatments

Reduces the snap of laser hair removal and tattoo removal on sensitive areas.

Permanent make-up

Comfortable microblading, powder brows and lip blush without constant flinching.

Piercing

Takes the edge off ear, nose, navel and body piercings in seconds of discomfort.

Frequently asked questions

How long before my appointment should I apply the cream?

45–90 minutes before you start. Cover the cream with cling film so it stays moist and keeps working.

How long does the numbing effect last?

Typically 2–4 hours, depending on your skin, the area treated and how long the cream was left on.
