For many clients, the fear of pain is the biggest barrier to getting the tattoo they desire. As a professional artist, managing your client's comfort isn't just compassionate—it's good business. Longer, more detailed sessions become possible when pain is effectively managed.
Enter Five Star Vasocaine Topical Relieving Spray. This powerful, fast-acting formula has become a staple in studios aiming to provide a more comfortable experience. But how does it work, and is it the right choice for your practice?
This comprehensive guide will explore everything you need to know about Five Star Vasocaine Spray, from its key ingredients to its proper application and safety.
Five Star Vasocaine is a topically applied anesthetic spray designed to numb the skin temporarily. It is specifically formulated to reduce pain and discomfort associated with cosmetic procedures, including tattooing, piercing, and microblading.
The 4 oz bottle comes in a convenient spray format, allowing for easy, hygienic, and targeted application without touching the skin.
The efficacy of Vasocaine lies in its powerful blend of active ingredients:
Lidocaine (5%): A leading local anesthetic that blocks nerve signals in the skin, preventing pain sensations from reaching the brain.
Epinephrine (1:2000): Also known as adrenaline, this ingredient serves two critical functions:
It constricts blood vessels, which helps to reduce bleeding and swelling at the site.
It slows the absorption of Lidocaine, allowing the numbing effect to last longer and making it safer by preventing the anesthetic from entering the bloodstream too quickly.
This combination makes it particularly effective for long tattoo sessions on various body parts.
Fast-Acting Relief: Begins to numb the skin quickly, reducing initial pain.
Extended Duration: The epinephrine helps the numbing effect last longer, ideal for multi-hour sessions.
Reduced Bleeding & Swelling: Vasoconstriction leads to a less bloody and swollen work area, giving artists a clearer canvas and promoting better ink retention.
Hygienic Application: The spray bottle minimizes direct contact, maintaining a sterile environment.
Client Satisfaction: dramatically improves client comfort, leading to positive reviews, repeat business, and referrals.
Warning: Always perform a patch test 24 hours before use to check for allergic reactions.
Clean the Area: Thoroughly cleanse and dry the skin where the tattoo will be applied.
Apply Liberally: Spray a generous amount of Vasocaine onto the skin from a distance of 2-3 inches. Ensure complete coverage over the entire area to be tattooed.
Allow Absorption: Let the solution absorb and dry naturally for 5-10 minutes. You may feel a cooling or slight burning sensation initially—this is normal.
Begin Procedure: Once the skin feels numb to the touch, you can begin tattooing.
Reapplication: For longer sessions, the effect may wear off. You can reapply the spray as needed. Always wipe away excess ink and blood before reapplying.
For External Use Only: Never use on broken skin, mucous membranes, or near the eyes.
Not for Everyone: Do not use on clients who are pregnant, nursing, or have known heart conditions, high blood pressure, or sensitivities to local anesthetics.
Follow Local Regulations: Be aware of and comply with your local and state regulations regarding the use of topical anesthetics in tattooing.
Q: How long does Five Star Vasocaine numbness last?
A: The intense numbing effect typically lasts for 30-60 minutes. Reapplication can extend this for longer sessions.
Q: Can I use it during and after the tattoo?
A: It is primarily designed for use before the procedure to pre-numb the area. It can be reapplied during the tattoo if needed. It is not typically used for aftercare.
Q: Is it safe for all parts of the body?
A: It is generally safe for most areas, but extra caution should be taken on thin-skinned or highly sensitive areas (e.g., ribs, neck, groin). Always do a patch test.
Q: Do you ship internationally?
A: Yes! We are a trusted supplier for professional tattoo artists worldwide and offer secure global shipping.
