"I do everything with fear, but I do it", she wrote about the image.

Approximately three hours later, the host used her social media again to announce that the intervention had been completed.

What is known about Paula Chaves' recovery

After confirming that she had come out of the operating room, the model did not share detailed information about the procedure or the subsequent treatment.

She also did not specify how long she would need to keep the bandage or if she would have to temporarily suspend her work commitments.

Throughout the day, her posts focused on the previous conversations with the professionals, the support from her sister, and the images taken at the clinic.

The last update showed Paula Chaves again in the room, after the intervention, with her hand bandaged and the message with which she confirmed the end of the surgery: "Done".

Paula Chaves underwent surgery on one of her hands and surprised her followers by revealing the deep fear she felt before entering the operating room. The model and host shared in her Instagram stories the conversations she had with the professionals in charge of the operation, documented her arrival at the clinic, and posted a photograph after the procedure, in which she showed her hand completely bandaged.

The wife of Pedro Alfonso was operated on Tuesday, November 10, and was accompanied by her sister, Delfina Chaves. Although she initially did not provide details about the diagnosis that prompted the intervention, she explained that anesthesia was her main concern.

Paula Chaves' fear before entering the operating room

Days before the operation, the host decided to contact the anesthesiologist directly to clear her doubts.

"In a new chapter of my phobias. I have to have hand surgery and I asked for the anesthesiologist's phone number", she wrote alongside a screenshot.

In the exchange with the professional, she revealed what her concern was.

"I don't know if you know about my phobia of anesthesia and being trapped without being able to wake up", she expressed.

Chaves publicly shared the messages and mentioned that she had also sought to speak with the doctor responsible for the surgery.

"Now I went for the doctor. I have no limits", she joked.

The request Paula Chaves made to her doctor

The model requested that they consider the possibility of performing the procedure without resorting to general anesthesia.

"Do local anesthesia, I beg you, I will keep postponing it because of my panic if not", she wrote.

The professional responded that they could consider that alternative.

"As you prefer. It won't be painful at all", he assured her.

During the conversation, Chaves recalled a personal experience to compare the intervention with a situation she had already gone through.

"I gave birth without anesthesia. This can't be worse", she expressed.

The doctor reassured her again with a brief response: "Forget it, not even comparable".

The host shared the screenshots before the operation, although she did not publicly confirm what type of anesthesia she ultimately received.

Paula Chaves cried on the way to the clinic and received support from Delfina

On Tuesday, before the procedure, the actress posted a photograph while traveling in a taxi to the medical center.

"Who is about to have hand surgery and is crying in a taxi going to make a fool of herself at the clinic", she wrote.

Upon arrival, she was accompanied by her sister Delfina Chaves, who stayed with her during the preparations.

The host documented the meeting through an Instagram story and introduced the actress with a phrase: "My therapeutic companion has arrived".
