Title: alternative anesthesia for genioplasty
Post by: asphyxia on April 09, 2015, 03:15:06 AM

Hi everyone
Does anybody knows wether it is possible to undergo SG under local?
Or twilight?
Do you know a surgeon in Europe who actually does it?
I know it is very uncomfortable,but I'll take it, I don't want to go through GA once again.

Yes it is possible. My aunt had it done that way. Her surgeon said that a bigger advancement would have required going under though.
