    Default A local only for breast work ??

    Tonite on the news i heard about a doctor in my area, actually 2 miles away who is doing breast implants under a "local" only.

    I thought you had to go under. To be awake...wow!

    Is this new ? Implants & reductions, with a local only.

    I would guess he would have to give you something like a spinal block.....?

    doing a local only with implants is not new. I think they call it "twilight" sedation. I have a friend who had a local. She said never again. Also I have another friend who had a nose job with a local. She felt no pain but could feel pressure and could hear the "crrrrk crrrk crrrrk" of him hammering her nose. gross!

    I had my lift done under a local only I guess. I'm not sure what a "local" is, but I took two pills on my way to the Dr.'s office. I don't remember what they were, but I was 3/4 asleep with my head on my SO's shoulder, drooling on him. They gave me a shot in the operating room. I was in and out of sleep, and if I had a big urge, I could've probably lifted my head and looked at them cutting my skin...maybe. I might not have been able to lift my head. The only thing that bothered me was I don't know what nonsense I said to the Dr. and the nurse. I couldn't feel anything and was asleep most of the time. He performed the lift for free because he had already performed my BA a year earlier. If I would've been "under" it would not be so cheap. I would never do it that way for the actual BA though. Put me under in an out-patient facility!(Which is what he does.)

    You think that's bad, I used to work with this girl who had hers done, but her body wouldn't take to the anesthesia. She goes ahead and has them done anyway! They had to strap her to the bed, and I guess even the nurse was on the verge of tears for her. Talk about balls! You've really gotta be craving tits something fierce for that kinda torture!

    This isn't new. For my last re-do the doctor and I were joking with each other in the operating room - but he made me stop and gave me extra anesthesia so I would hold still while he was stitching up my incisions.

    I saw some special on TV about plastic surgery and these girls got their noses done, boobs done, and some lipo and after that let me tell you, there is no way in the world you could get me near an operating room without being completely knocked out! I want to be dead to the world! When I saw what they were doing to that poor girls nose and if I was awake for that, ohh.... all I can say is someone pray for that poor doctor! lol

    I don't get why anyone would opt for that. I think I'd have nightmares for ages if I were awake.

    Yes,there is something called twilight,were instead of being completely under like with general, which they say is the clossest thing to death,you just get a drip,with demoral or valum or something similar,like the procedure you and I talked about having done earlier pamella,they like you to be awake for it,some wont even give you iv sedation,just a local with like a tranquilizer pill,that pill isnt going to do anything for me,pretty scary.

    From what I understand, only implants put over the muscle can be done under local (with no twillight, just a shot that numbs the area), and still let's you be comfortable. Local should never be used with submuscular implants because causes too much pain. Doctors say with local, surgery and recovery is quicker.
