Frequently Asked Questions

Because  placement  of   implants  in  the  submuscular  position requires     complete   muscle   relaxation,    particularly   via   the trans-axillary   route,   outpatient   general   anesthesia   is   used. We have recently  moved  to  new offices  with  a  fully-equipped ambulatory surgery center, employing Anesthesiologists (MDs) who  are  certified  by  the  American   Board  of  Anesthesiology  to  perform  anesthesia  services. To  maximize  patient  comfort  and  safety,   our new  Outpatient  Cosmetic  Surgery  Center has two  operating  rooms  fully  Class  C  (all  depths  of  anesthesia) certified   by   the   American   Association   for   Accreditation  of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities (AAAASF).  A link to the AAAASF website  is  found  here.  Virtually all  of  our surgical  procedures are  now   being   done   in   this  state-of-the-art   surgery   facility.
