What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a drug-free way to ease anxiety and improve comfort during minor facial surgeries.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study (66 people) at one hospital, so results may not apply widely. Hypnosis may not work for everyone, and the study relies on self-reported anxiety scores.
