About Pliaglis

Pliaglis, a lidocaine and tetracaine (seven percent/seven percent) formulation, an FDA approved topical local anesthetic cream that provides safe and effective local dermal anaesthesia on intact skin prior to superficial dermatological procedures, such as dermal filler injection, pulsed dye laser therapy, facial laser resurfacing and laser-assisted tattoo removal.  This product contains lidocaine and tetracaine and utilizes the proprietary phase-changing topical cream “Peel” technology.  The “Peel” technology consists of a drug containing cream which, once applied to a patient’s skin, dries to form a pliable layer that releases drug into the skin.  Following the application period, Pliaglis forms a pliable layer that is removed from the skin allowing the dermatological procedure to be performed with minimal to no pain.
