After a minimal headshave Patrik and I made a long curving incision a centimetre or so behind her hairline following it all the way across her forehead. Pressing firmly with the tips of our fingers on either side of the incision to stop the scalp bleeding we placed plastic clips over the skin edges to close off the skin’s blood vessels. We then pulled her scalp off her forehead and folded it down over her face, already covered in the adhesive tape that secured Judith’s anaesthetic tube in place.
