I'm new to Real Self and in the market for breast implants. I'm FINALLY ready to commit, and am on the hunt for a phenomenal surgeon in my area (Jacksonville, FL). I am the primary caretaker of my children so minimal recovery time is ideal for me. Also I am petrified of general anesthesia. I've been under before, and other than feeling sick and incredibly shaky, I do okay.. but it still scares me. I would absolutely prefer local anesthesia, so I'm intrigued by the Rapid Recovery. Is it worth it?
Answer: Pros and cons of Rapid Recovery breast implants - if I'm a good candidate - I'd definitely prefer local anesthesia! There is no reason not to have a Rapid Recovery breast augmentation. The primary difference is the reduction of post-operative pain and the lack of limitations compared to the standard augmentation mammoplasty. Generally, many activities can be resumed the next day or two, and specific stretching will resume 6 hours after surgery.

Answer: Pros and cons of Rapid Recovery breast implants - if I'm a good candidate - I'd definitely prefer local anesthesia! hello thank you for your question and provided information as well..based on your question, the ideal thing is that you have a consultation with a certified plastic surgeon, who sees in person what you really need and explains what the steps would be; since it is difficult to orientate without photos, in the case of anesthesia it would be good to consult that part as well.

Answer: Breast augmentation Personally I am a big advocate for implants under muscle, which nearly always needs general anesthesia, for generally a much lower chance of problems post op and a more natural look. In the 1980s and 90's I did these above the muscle under local with sedation. Having done them both ways I have strong feelings. Pick a great surgeon and let them guide you to the best anesthesia for the situation. Good luck.

Answer: Rapid recovery breast augmentation Rapid recovery is a marketing term but if done correctly all breast augmentation could be considered rapid recovery. I don’t think submuscular breast augmentation is reasonable with just local.
