== Breach of EMLA guidelines ==
Dr Russell experimented with the use of Eutectic mixture of Local Anesthetic (EMLA) cream on infants in 1993 onwards.<ref name='russel'/>

Use of EMLA has a risk of potentially very serious Methaemoglobinaemia.<ref name="cirp-emla"/>
EMLA is apparently the only anestethic used by Dr Russell as no others are mentioned on his website.<ref name=russel/>
EMLA was found to be the least effective anesthesia during infant circumcision.<ref>{{REFjournal

Advertising regulations prohibit claims that use of a therapeutic device (in this case the Plastibell device) can prevent cancer or HIV.
His website formerly falsely claimed circumcision completely prevented cancer of the penis.
