A member asked:

Urgent! are you awake during an upper labial frenulum surgery. i'm scared ill be awake during surgery and would rather be asleep. nervous. help?!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A little snip?: Somebody is going to snip a bit of the frenulum between the upper lip and gums? Is the frenulum causing a problem? Snipping it sounds easier than... than getting numbed up to fill a dental cavity. Doubt any older child or any adult would be asleep for something like that. One can ask the doctor doing the procedure for the details.
