With the application of anesthesia before surgery, you will not feel any pain during your hairline lowering procedure. Dr. Costa may give you an additional dose of anesthesia before you leave the hospital to ensure you are comfortable for your journey home. Once you are in the recovery phase post-surgery, you can expect to feel soreness at the surgical site. Dr. Costa will advise you on the best type of medication to manage the pain as you are healing. As you come back for your follow-up appointments, Dr. Costa will also monitor your pain to ensure it is within the normal range at every stage.
