Thanks for asking. I was totally awake throughout the procedure they only numb the harvest site and the injection site. The injection is done with laser assistance, so I was able to watch exactly where they injected it. Only one injection sight. My biggest issue was no definite instructions on exactly what I should do post procedure I was told to pay attention to my body and it would guide me. I am pretty attuned to my body so we’ll see.

Oh my! I agree they could have been a little more specific about expectations! I know people react differently to tissue invasion, but they could have given you a couple of different scenarios! Maybe they felt that complications were minimal and rare and you could resume normal activities quickly?
