This examination is not free of charge. The amount for this is about 40,- Euro. This examination can be performed by any family doctor, but it is also possible at our clinic. A referral to the family doctor is not necessary for this.
This must be decided on an individual basis and depends on both your own condition and the size of your procedure. In the event that you are physically unable to travel alone and the procedure is very long, we would definitely recommend bringing a companion. This can then support and supervise you.
In this case, please always bring an accompanying person. The anesthesia may affect your ability to drive for hours after the procedure. Therefore, we always recommend staying in a hotel for a few days. You should rest completely one day before until at least 4 days after the procedure and avoid any stress and exertion.
Do not walk or exercise for the first three days. You need to relax, you may listen to music, read books or even meditate. You should not read or watch the news and also refrain from yoga.
Please also speak as little as possible so that the wound is not irritated. Otherwise, the suture may open or more severe swelling may occur.
It depends on what ensures the most pleasant treatment process for you personally. Most of our patients do not require sedation or anesthesia.
Anesthetics ALWAYS test negative, no matter which one you use. Therefore, it makes no sense whatsoever to test them. Anesthetics are a necessary evil to be able to treat the patient. However, the anesthetics are broken down or excreted again within a very short time. In 15 years we have not experienced any complication with the anesthetic we use (Ultracain Forte = active ingredient articaine).
