Why BLT for Microneedling

Deep, Even Numbness
Across the Treatment Area

Microneedling and RF microneedling create hundreds of controlled micro-channels across the skin — comfort has to be uniform, not just surface-deep. Always Numb™ is a compounded triple-anesthetic BLT: Benzocaine 20%, Lidocaine 10%, and Tetracaine 10%. Benzocaine establishes fast surface numbing, lidocaine builds a reliable anesthetic core, and tetracaine reaches deeper and lasts — a balanced profile made for the even, full-face comfort microneedling demands.

◆
Fast ~15-Minute Onset
Benzocaine drives a fast surface onset while lidocaine and tetracaine build underneath — reaching working depth in about 15 minutes so your microneedling schedule keeps moving.
◆
2–4 Hour Duration
Tetracaine extends deep, clinical-strength numbness for roughly 2 to 4 hours — ample coverage for full-face microneedling, RF microneedling, and multi-area sessions.
◆
Even, Full-Area Comfort
A defined BLT compound gives predictable depth across the whole treatment area, so numbing feels consistent from center to hairline rather than patchy.
◆
503A Pharmacy · USP-795
Compounded in an FDA-registered 503A pharmacy under USP-795 standards, prepared fresh per order to consistent, provider-grade specifications.
◆
Built for RF Microneedling
Radiofrequency microneedling reaches deeper and often runs longer. The depth and duration of BLT are well matched to RF protocols where surface-only creams fall short.
◆
Compounded Fresh Per Order
Nothing sits on a shelf for months. Each order is compounded fresh by our 503A partner pharmacy, then shipped to your practice — potent and prepared to spec.
Application Guidance

How Providers Apply It
Before Microneedling

General guidance for licensed providers — always defer to your own clinical protocol and the manufacturer's directions for use.

Applying BLT numbing cream to the face before microneedling
01
Prep
Cleanse and dry the treatment area. Apply an even layer of Always Numb™ to the skin you'll be treating, per your protocol.
02
Wait ~15–20 min
Allow roughly 15 to 20 minutes for the BLT compound to reach working depth across the area before you begin.
03
Remove
Fully remove the cream and prep the skin before the procedure, following your standard microneedling or RF microneedling protocol.
04
Treat
Begin with confidence. Deep numbness lasting 2–4 hours covers the full session, including longer RF passes and multi-area work.
The Difference

Why Compounded BLT Beats Drugstore Lidocaine

Off-the-shelf lidocaine is shallow and short-acting. A true triple-anesthetic BLT is compounded fresh per order for the depth and duration microneedling actually needs.

Questions

Microneedling Numbing FAQ

As a general guide, licensed providers apply Always Numb™ to clean, dry skin roughly 15 to 20 minutes before microneedling, then remove it completely before the procedure. Always follow your own clinical protocol and manufacturer guidance for timing and application.
Drugstore lidocaine creams (typically 4%) are shallow and short-acting. Always Numb™ is a compounded triple-anesthetic BLT — Benzocaine 20%, Lidocaine 10%, Tetracaine 10% — engineered for deeper, longer-lasting numbness across the treatment area, with a fast ~15-minute onset and 2–4 hour duration that comfortably covers a microneedling or RF microneedling session.
Yes. Providers use Always Numb™ ahead of both traditional and radiofrequency (RF) microneedling. The deep, even numbness and 2–4 hour duration are well suited to RF microneedling sessions, which can run longer and reach deeper tissue.
Always Numb™ is a compounded, prescription-strength product for licensed providers — it is not sold retail to patients. It is compounded fresh per order by our 503A partner pharmacy. Call (310) 889-0733 and our team will set up your provider account and confirm your formulation.
