At SILK Medical Spa, we can apply a topical anesthetic to your lips prior to your Volbella session. That takes the edge off. But you will feel a slight prick with the injections. Patients sometimes equate the feeling to that of a bee sting, without the residual pain from the sting.
Everyone’s tolerance for pain is different. Some people don’t request any topical numbing prior to their session. Others demand it. Let’s just say this — you can feel these injections, but the pain or sensation is easily manageable.
