Microneedling is a popular treatment for improving skin texture, reducing wrinkles and scars, and improving the skin. It uses a device with small needles to create tiny injuries. A professional numbing cream for microneedling before and after the procedure can make it even more effective.
This article will discuss the best creams for better microneedling results.
Dermatology Creams
Dermatology creams are designed to improve skin health and address various skin concerns. These creams contain active ingredients such as retinol, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C, which can help boost collagen production and improve skin texture.
A dermatology cream before and after microneedling can help prepare the skin for the procedure and promote healing and rejuvenation afterward.
Creams for Microneedling
There are also creams specifically formulated for use with microneedling. These creams often contain peptides, growth factors, and antioxidants, which can help enhance the procedure’s results. These creams can also help reduce inflammation and promote healing, making them ideal for use after microneedling. Choosing a cream specifically labeled for microneedling is important to ensure it is safe and effective.
Numbing Cream for Microneedling
Microneedling can be uncomfortable for some individuals, especially those with a low pain tolerance. In these cases, using a numbing cream for face microneedling before the procedure can help make it more tolerable.
These creams contain lidocaine or other numbing agents, like BLT numbing cream, which can temporarily numb the skin, reducing the needles’ sensation. This can make the microneedling experience more comfortable and allow for a deeper treatment.

Best Numbing Creams for Microneedling
NeuroMed BLT Numbing Cream
BLT numbing creams, such as NeuroMed BLT Numbing Cream, are topical anesthetic creams that combine three active ingredients: benzocaine, lidocaine, and tetracaine. NeuroMed BLT Cream works together as the most potent numbing cream to numb the skin and underlying tissues. It is a professional numbing cream for microneedling and is considered one of the best.
Maxi Lidocaine COMBO
Lidocaine is a topical anesthetic that works by blocking nerve signals in the body, numbing the area it is applied to. It is commonly used in medical procedures and many over-the-counter numbing creams. Our Maxi Lidocaine COMBO includes Progelcaine 9.6% Lidocaine Gel and Cosmic Numbing Spray. Our COMBO works well for microneedling and other procedures that break or open the skin, such as tattooing, PMU, and other painful aesthetic or cosmetic procedures.
NumbSkin 10.56% COMBO
NumbSkin 10.56% COMBO includes NumbSkin 10.56% Lidocaine Numbing Cream and NumbSkin Topical Anesthetic Foam Soap 4% lidocaine, available as a non-prescription topical anesthetic lidocaine 10.
The NumbSkin 10.56 COMBO is pure lidocaine, a pain-relieving, medical-grade numbing cream that is one of the strongest numbing creams you can buy. Its application time is approximately 15-20 minutes.
When the lidocaine cream begins to wear off, reapply the NumbSkin Topical Anesthetic Foam Soap 4% lidocaine continuously to boost the overall numbing process.
Hydrating Creams
Keeping the skin hydrated is crucial for optimal microneedling results. Hydrated skin is more plump and elastic, making it easier for the needles to penetrate and stimulate collagen production. Applying a hydrating cream before and after microneedling can help improve the procedure’s overall results. Look for creams with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and ceramides, which can help attract and retain moisture in the skin.
Microneedling can cause inflammation and redness in the skin, which is normal during healing. However, using an anti-inflammatory cream after the procedure can help reduce these side effects and promote faster healing. Look for creams with ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, and green tea, which have soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
Conclusion
A BLT numbing cream before and after microneedling can help enhance the procedure’s results and promote faster healing. Whether you choose a dermatology cream specifically formulated for microneedling or a face-numbing cream, pick one that is safe and effective for the procedure. Additionally, keeping the skin hydrated and using anti-inflammatory creams can also help improve the overall results of microneedling. Consult your dermatologist or aesthetician to determine the best cream for your skin needs and concerns.
