What Are Topical Anesthetics and How Do They Work?

Topical anaesthetics are medications applied directly to the skin or mucous membranes to block nerve signals in a targeted area. They provide temporary numbness, making procedures more comfortable and pain-free. Unlike oral medications, they work locally — without systemic side effects.

Common Topical Anaesthetic Ingredients We Offer

Each ingredient is selected and combined based on your procedure and tolerance:

Lidocaine: Fast-acting and versatile — ideal for minor procedures and broad cosmetic use.

Benzocaine: Used for oral and surface skin numbing where quick surface relief is needed.

Tetracaine: A strong, fast-onset anaesthetic for deeper or more intense procedures.

Prilocaine: Often combined with lidocaine for a longer-lasting effect.

BLT (Benzocaine-Lidocaine-Tetracaine): A triple anaesthetic blend for high-intensity procedures requiring maximum numbing.

Custom Concentrations: We adjust strength, base, and texture so the formula fits the procedure precisely.

Frequently Asked Questions — Topical Anesthetics in Toronto

Do I need a prescription for topical anaesthetics in Ontario?

Some high-strength compounded products require a prescription, while OTC-strength options are available without one. Our pharmacists will advise on what your procedure requires.

Are topical anesthetics safe?

Yes — when used as directed. We ensure the proper strength and provide clear application instructions for safe, effective use.

How fast do they work?

Onset varies from 5 to 60 minutes depending on the formulation, and the numbing effect may last 1 to 4 hours.

Can I get these shipped to Ontario?

Yes. We ship across Ontario with fast, trackable, and discreet delivery options — and offer in-store pickup in Toronto.

Which anaesthetic is best for tattoos vs. laser treatments?

High-strength lidocaine-based creams are popular for tattoos due to their longevity, while fast-absorbing gels suit laser hair removal. Our pharmacists tailor the concentration and base to your specific procedure.

BLT is a triple-anaesthetic blend of Benzocaine, Lidocaine, and Tetracaine — used for high-intensity procedures that require maximum numbing.
