Of the doctors here who perform breast fat transfer surgery, do you use local or general anesthesia? I have read that the risk of death and complications during surgery are greatly reduced if using local anesthesia. What is your stance on this? Do you use blood thinners after surgery for blood clot risk reduction? I have a family history of blood clots, but have none myself.
