Surgery Time

[Dopesaint]

I've read the shorter the surgery, the quicker the recovery.

I've talked to 3 top North American maxillofacial surgeons and none of them seem to agree that a shorter operation time helps with recovery. Can anyone provide their expertise on this?

Surgery time is mostly marketing and it's mostly the surgeon who benefit from it. Think about if you think the surgeons spending more time is just that incompetent compared to someone doing it faster, or if they're more careful and accurate? There may be some difference in recovery, but you also have to remember that in order to displace, the same fractures need to be done and they're brutal regardless.

In theory anaesthesia is not that great for your brain and the less you have it the better.
