What happens here

To prepare for the operation, the patient receives three types of medication: an anxiety-relieving medication (similar to what might be given for a vasectomy), a pain medication to reduce discomfort during numbing, and an antibiotic to be taken for the next three days. The patient then lies face-down on a chair, akin to a dentist's or massage chair, with their head resting in a specialized attachment, allowing access to the donor area at the back of the head.

Goal: Before the procedure begins, the patient is given various medications to manage anxiety and pain, then positioned face-down on a specialized chair for the extraction phase.
