Will general anesthesia allow for more drastic submental lipo results than local?

Asked By:jrdntndy

Hello, I recently had a consultation for submental liposuction and was told I would need to be put under general. To my understanding the amount of fat to be removed will require a toxic level of local anesthesia, requiring general instead. Is this realistic? Will general anesthesia allow for more drastic results than local anesthesia will (i.e will they be more aggressive/take more fat out this way)? I did not get any red flags from this surgeon, I am just wondering. Thanks!
