Summary
Injection of dermal filler is used as an aesthetic treatment to fill in unwanted wrinkles and
scars. There can be substantial pain associated with dermal filler injections. For this
reason, local anesthesia is often used to eliminate or minimize the pain. This anesthesia can
be administered by injection or through the use of topical creams and ointments.
S-Caine™ Peel (lidocaine 7% and tetracaine 7% cream) is a eutectic formulation of lidocaine
and tetracaine. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if S-Caine Peel is effective in
providing topical local dermal anesthesia for dermal filler injections in adults.
