Thank you for your response. I'm glad there's no pain. The Lidocaine shot is not very pleasant. Once I saw my surgeon and reconstructive plastic surgeon, my surgery date was a little less than 4 weeks out. You will be there soon! Best wishes.

Hello @rylee2019. I did have a Savi Scout (was pretty nervous about it prior). My doctor prescribed me with Lidocaine Cream I think it was 2.5% and told me to put it on the entire area an hour prior to the procedure. I did this and I honestly did not feel anything, including the needle for the shot. It helped immensely to the point I remember thinking that was not near as bad as I thought it would be.
