That's f-ing AWESOME!

But that sounds incredibly painful.

Actually it was used on me a couple years ago, and they gave me morphine and something else to numb the pain so it was just a little bit itchy. Afterwards the wound wasn't really painful, It was just uncomfortable to have this fresh skin stretching, but i have rather high pain tolerance.

It's amazing! They give pretty strong anaesthesia alongside but it's still not the most comfortable
