Many aesthetic operations operate at the level of the skin and the structures just below the skin. Comprehensive local anaesthesia at the end of your surgery can minimise any discomfort from these operations. Rarely some discomfort can result following certain types of surgery that require attachment to deeper planes but this does not preclude daycase operating in most cases. It is important to Mr. Gore that you do not have significant post-operative pain and so you are discharged after your operation with a comprehensive range of painkiller medications to ensure your post-operative comfort.
