The procedure
The procedure is performed in a modern, fully-equipped operation theatre under local anesthesia. 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 are applied before you are shifted to recovery. This is done on an outpatient basis.
