₨ 1,250
Emla Cream 5g contains a combination of Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5%, used as a topical anesthetic to numb the skin before minor surgical procedures, injections, blood sampling, or laser treatments. It helps reduce pain and discomfort by blocking nerve signals in the applied area.
Doctors and dermatologists commonly recommend Emla Cream for numbing the skin before needle insertions, minor skin surgeries, and cosmetic procedures like tattoo removal or laser hair removal. It is safe for use on intact skin and external genital areas under medical supervision.
Each tube contains 5g of cream, offering a convenient and precise application. To use, apply a thick layer of the cream on the affected area as per your doctor’s instructions. Cover it with an occlusive dressing for optimal absorption. The numbing effect usually starts within 30 to 60 minutes after application and lasts for approximately 1-2 hours.
Emla Cream provides a safe and effective solution to minimize procedure-related pain without the need for injectable anesthesia. Always wash your hands after application unless your hands are the treatment site. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, or broken skin.
Store the tube at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight. Keep it out of reach of children.

Emla Cream 5g (Lidocaine 2.5% + Prilocaine 2.5%)
Emla Cream 5g is a topical anesthetic used to numb the skin and mucous membranes. It is applied before minor medical or cosmetic procedures. The active ingredients—Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5%—block sodium channels in nerve endings. As a result, they prevent pain signals from reaching the brain.
Doctors typically use Emla Cream before needle insertions, skin biopsies, or cannula placements. Additionally, cosmetic professionals apply it before procedures like laser hair removal, tattoo removal, or dermal fillers. In these cases, the cream helps minimize discomfort and enhances patient comfort.
