<p>MOWC, the MD numbs the areas with a lidocaine type gel, first which takes about 45 mins, but actually last time she used a new Restylane that has anesthetic in it so the numbing proces beforehand was down to about 20 mins or so. This feels alot better. It doesn’t tickle but I’d rather have this than an epidural anytime if you know what I mean! Its a bit more sensitive right around the nasal area but just for a sec. There can be minor bruising which fades and goes away after about a week in a spot or two. I also do glycolic peels with her about every 2 and a half months.</p>
