I Am Having Revision Rhinoplasty to Remove a Rib Graph. What Am I in Store For?

December 8, 2010
Asked By:Jinger in Asbury Park, NJ

I am also doing this with no sedation only a local numbing. There is very few information about rhinoplasty with no sedation. I know everyone is different but, I was wondering the level of pain. Also why sedation would be recommended. The Doctor said I(myself) may abort this during the numbing process. How long does the numbing process generally take?
