I was snipped a couple of years ago now. Happy to share the experience.
I spoke to my GP, who gave me an NHS information sheet. Later, when I decided to go through with it, I made an appointment with him, and he went through a series of questions over the telephone, to establish suitability, reasons for wanting it, completed understanding of the ramifications and to check if there was any coercion involved. Happy, he then made a reversal.
A short while later (a few weeks) I got my appointment letter, which I confirmed, and then received an information pack. The procedure was done privately, on behalf of the NHS.
When you arrive for he appointment, you are taken away from anybody who is with you for a private consultation. Part of this is to ensure that there is no coercive control taking place, and you are there of your own free will. I understand this is now common practice for any life changing, elective surgery. Then you wait for your name to be called.
Once in the room, you have a consultation with the Doctor, during which you receive an examination to for things, including wether or not your tubes can be found. (Interesting side note here. You don't strip for the procedure. They leave you with your pants and trousers around your ankles. I think this is to reduce your ability to run from the room!)
Providing all is present and correct, you receive the local anaesthetic injection. You are warned that it may be uncomfortable. In reality, I'd rate the discomfort as no worse than if you were to pull a single tube from your scrotum, and of the same duration. So, nothing to be concerned about.
The procedure commences with a single tiny incision to the scrotum (In my case, near the root of the penis) through which your tubes are drawn out for cauterisation. There is a slight odour as they are cauterised and the sound of the equipment leaves you in no doubt something is happening, but there is no pain or discomfort. My Doctor kept me informed of progress as he went, and any time I looked or felt anxious, the incredibly gorgeous nurse assisting reassured me, distracted me and left me calm. Actually, the most difficult part of the whole experience was not get hard such was the level of attractiveness of the nurse. (Your experience may vary) Once done, and tubes back inside the wound is dressed and left to heal naturally without stitches. You are then taken to the recovery room. Once they are satisfied with your progress, you are sent on your way, with an after care pack and advice. They do not recommend you drive yourself to / from the procedure, and recommend a few days rest to aid healing.
So what's life like afterwards? I've noticed a significantly reduced "output" on ejacualation, although apparently prior I've been told the "output" was noticeably generous. Make of that what you will. Also, every now and then I get a faint, dull ache. There can be rare complications, but this is all explained to you before surgery. Hopefully that helps you understand the procedure.
The real questions to ask yourself are about the lived with consequences. At 40, you're still young enough to find yourself in a relationship where more kids might become desirable. You need to be cock sure of yourself not wanting, or any future partner not wanting children in the future. There is no guarantee a reversal would be successful.

As you will see from my vids, it hasn’t affected my ejaculate....... 
. But for a bit of discomfort my partner could come off the pill so it’s a distant memory now and glad I got it done. 
with her. Instead of her having to go through issues with the pill.
