Guess I'm not the only one who finds it fascinating. I've asked to see a few procedures and the docs try to talk me out of it.
One of them was a skin graft in my mouth. It's weird to see what should be excruciating pain but not feel it.

They did have to give me extra rounds of shots. They said it normally takes 2 shots and I needed 6.
