Don't Be So Sensitive

What happens when a doctor who manages pain dreads her own bikini waxing? If that doc is LA-based anesthesiologist Edna Ma, MD, she comes up with her own de-fuzzing fix. 

Similar to other products (and to what you'd get before a laser treatment) Ma's BareEase & Cream contains lidocaine to numb the area. But to be effective, lidocaine needs to stay in contact with skin for about 30 to 40 minutes, so Ma came up with latex panties to include in her prep kit.

Para que no te duela al depilarte con cera o láser

Si eres de las que va a hacerse el 'bikini wax' antes de ir a la playa, o si has querido ir pero te aterra la idea de pasar dolor, este producto podría relajarte.

Se trata del kit BareEase & Cream que adormece la zona, creado por la anestesióloga Dra. Edna Ma.

La idea surgió porque la misma especialista se fue a someter a un 'Brazilian Wax', y su sufrimiento la hizo pensar: "¿Por qué debería doler esto? Soy una doctora y especialista en el dolor ... ¡Puedo hacer algo!"
