Fear of hair transplant surgery two weeks away (from Reddit)

Most of my patients actually enjoy the surgical experience. We use drugs to bring the patient into a light sleep and then perform the local anesthesia so that they don’t feel it. I always tell the patient to think about taking a trip to Hawaii. Last week, a patient told me he preferred Cancun, and when I was doing the surgery he was moving like he was dancing. It made the surgery a bit more difficult, but at the end of the surgery I asked about his trip to Cancun and if remembered dancing at the beach. He said he somehow went to Hawaii but did remember that he was dancing with beautiful women at the beach in Hawaii. We all laughed. Don’t worry, the surgery will be a great experience.
