Pros and cons of Rapid Recovery breast implants - if I'm a good candidate - I'd definitely prefer local anesthesia!

mytimenow225
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?
