Dr. Georgi Varbanov is a family medicine physician dedicated to evidence-based care and disease prevention.

Emla cream is a topical anaesthetic used to numb the surface of the skin and mucous membranes. It contains a combination of two active ingredients: lidocaine and prilocaine. These substances block nerve signals in the area where the cream is applied, helping to reduce sensation for a limited time.

Emla cream is commonly used before minor medical procedures such as blood draws, vaccinations, or dermatological treatments. When applied in advance, it helps reduce pain and discomfort. It is also used as a supportive option for individuals experiencing premature ejaculation. When applied to the penis before sexual activity, Emla cream can temporarily reduce sensitivity, helping to delay climax and prolong intercourse.

The cream should be applied to clean, dry skin and covered with a dressing when used for medical procedures. For sexual use, it should be applied and left on for a brief period, then washed off before intercourse to prevent numbness in the partner. The numbing effect typically begins within 10 to 30 minutes and lasts for about one to two hours.

Emla offers a non-invasive, easy-to-use solution for temporary numbness. It is available in small tubes and can be stored at room temperature. Whether used for clinical or intimate settings, Emla cream provides localised control over sensation.
