Twilight sleep for rhinoplasty - I'm terrified!

star604
I found the surgeon I wish to use for my rhinoplasty. The only problem I have is that he uses twilight sedation for his rhino procedures. I'm terrified and was hoping to be put out for this procedure. Should I look for a different surgeon or is this form of sedation nothing to be worried about? Even though they say I won't remember anything, does this mean I won't feel or experience the surgery?! I'm very anxious about this, though I have confidence in the surgeon and like his results. Help!!!
