The procedure
The procedure is performed in a modern, fully-equipped operation theatre with a qualified anaesthetist and trained surgical team. Markings are made with you standing, checked against pre-operative photographs and simulations. Tissue is handled with meticulous, layered technique, closure is tension-free, and dressings or garments are applied before you are shifted to recovery. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia or so that you will be discharged home the next day.
