Liposuction generally uses local anesthesia.
Liposuction surgery can choose different anesthesia methods according to the scope of liposuction surgery. For surgery with a relatively small range of liposuction, local anesthesia can be used to inject a small amount of swelling fluid into the liposuction area to expand the local tissues and then suck the fat out. When the scope of liposuction is large or the person who has liposuction is very nervous and does not cooperate with the operation, general anesthesia can be selected to ensure the implementation of the operation. Intravenous general anesthesia is often selected, and sedative and analgesic drugs are injected through the patient’s venous blood vessels to act on the human central nervous system and put the person in a deep sleep state before undergoing surgery. During the entire liposuction procedure, the patient is unconscious, painless, and unconscious. memory. After the liposuction operation is over, stop the drug injection, and the patient will wake up quickly.
Suggestion: It is enough to ensure normal nutritional needs, don’t overdo it, just keep it normal.
