Abstract:
A new visualizing and anesthetic composition and the process for the preparation thereof. The composition, generally as a gel, contains an effective amount of a topical anesthetic, an effective amount of a visualizing agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable gelling reservoir as a heat exchanger and/or a light transmitter. The composition is useful for topical application to a region of mammalian skin to supply visualization to a lesion therein and to anesthetize the region for a subsequent destructive therapy.
