Is there a way to have fat transfers to the breasts fully awake and conscious?

Asked By:michelley80 in Frostproof, Florida

I am looking to have fat transfers to the breasts but local anesthesia and any other drugs like propofol/versed or anything that makes me feel loopy/drowsy is very unappealing due to past experiences. I'm looking for an alternative option where the area can be numbed directly (like a dentist does for a filling) and perhaps an Ativan at most to relax. Does an option like this exist? I'm willing to travel.
