Minor operations carried out under local anesthetic
We use local anaesthesia to temporarily numb the area that is the focus of your minor surgery. We’ll choose a topical spray, gel or cream or injectable anaesthesia depending on the procedure.
It works quickly to numb the area and you’ll regain sensation within a couple of hours.
Please call us if you have questions about local anaesthetic for minor surgery or types or procedures.
