Abstract:

Effective cutaneous anesthesia is an important component of dermatologic surgery. The use of local anesthetics provides anesthesia, necessary for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in dermatology while avoiding the potential risks associated with general anesthesia. Modern researches provide new anesthetic formulations that have superior safety and efficacy profiles. Several anesthetic agents are nowadays available, suited for different applications and techniques of administration. The purpose of this review is to summarize the pharmacology and clinical applications of local anesthetics in the expanding field of procedural dermatology..
