I know you need to wear a top that you can take off easily after the surgery, as it may be soiled and most people get into something like comfy pj's and rest or sleep once they get home. But, is it cold in the operating room? Should you wear something with long sleeves to keep warm? or sleeveless?

Answer: If you have a face/neck lift under local and oral sedation, will you be wearing a hospital gown? Typically.When aesthetic procedures are performed under light sedation, IV sedation ( i.e, twilight anesthesia, conscious sedation), or general anesthesia a hospital gown is worn, but some are more comfortable than others. The gown is simply a cover for you when you move from the changing area to the operating room. The gowns are typically cleaned by a professional service guaranteeing their cleanliness over and beyond a traditional washer and dryer. Additionally, the gown is typically worn over your underwear if your procedure is performed under local and oral sedation, and most (but not all) IV sedation procedures. With a general anesthesia it is typically just you and the gown. However, your surgeon or surgery center will instruct you what you can and can not wear, and it is important to follow their directions.Also, remember the gown is also likely to get soiled from the sterilizing solution used on the skin prior to surgery or from other fluids so it actually is beneficial to wear one and save your clothes.I hope this helps.
