Surgeons have to be very precise when performing facial surgery, as even a small mistake can have a big impact on the final results. One way to help ensure precision is to completely undress the patient. This allows the surgeon to get a clear view of the entire area that will be operated on, and also makes it easier to mark out the surgical site. In addition, removing clothing eliminates the risk of any fabric getting caught in surgical instruments or causing other complications. While it may be uncomfortable for some patients to be completely naked during surgery, it is generally considered necessary in order to achieve the best possible results.
