According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A pain-reducing waxing strip (100) designed to remove hair while minimizing discomfort during use.

The local anesthetic agent (104) is encapsulated within microparticles to provide a controlled release profile during application, thereby reducing pain. A release liner (105) covers the wax formulation until use. The invention further discloses a manufacturing method involving melting the wax base, blending the anesthetic agent under controlled conditions, coating the backing strip, and applying the release liner. The strip may be configured as a cold-wax type requiring no pre-heating."
