Summary | Local anaesthesia plays a useful role in simple or superficial interventions. It is useful for the removal of mollusca contagiosa in children, for taking skin biopsies and for the treatment of condylomata acuminata. Other indications are painful inflamed acne lesions, light electrocautery and fulguration of whiteheads, hair removal by thermolysis in hirsutism and for intramuscular vaccinations. | |
