Summary
The purpose of the study is to compare two modalities of local anesthetic administration
prior to the placement of cosmetic facial injectable fillers. Both short and long term pain
perceptions for the facial filler procedure will be compared in patients receiving 4%
Topicaine gel on half their face, and 20% benzocaine gel prior to 2% lidocaine 1:100k
epinephrine nerve block injections on the other half of their face. The objective is to
quantify the subjective pain experienced by these two modalities of local anesthetic during
the procedure of Juvederm XC filler injections.
