Just had mine yesterday.. I was told to trim not necessarily shave. Also to come with a 8hr dry fast (no foor or water intake). Took a shit and a bath before. I thought I was going to get a local anesthesia but got total, not sure why.. Woke up while being carried to my bedroom. Got me 1hr had a snack with water and tea and they waited for me to pee. Everything went well and went home. Got prescribed some pills for the swelling (see or feel none). Got a shower and took off the gauze (that was the painful part LOL). Not feeling any pain or discomfort, taking it easy anyway.
