Asked By:Thunderthighs in Atlantic City, NJ

I was told besides lidocaine, percocet and xanax are taken before the Smartlipo to put me at ease and for pain management. I thought a person is awake during Smartlipo doest those pills combination knock a person to sleep? Also I am VERY NERVOUS to take it will I feel or go into panic once ingested? Will I become dependent on these drugs after? I need honest feedback on this and are there other options besides taken those 2 drugs.
