Is oral sedation sufficient to perform Tumescent liposuction surgery when the patient has a very low tolerance to pain?
Connie Hiers, MD, FACS says:

Oral sedation can be used for awake liposuction, but those who have low tolerance to pain do better with IV sedation or general sedation. Usually once you are numbed, the procedure goes well. I would suggest rescheduling your procedure under general anesthesia.
