I'm super confused trying 2 get as much information as I can. So I'm getting a breast augmentation & I'm trying to do ANYTING but general anesthesia, my god I'm terrified of general anesthesia. But I did some more research & found out there's something called twilight sedation?! So like is it general anesthesia or like is it a light does of anesthesia & is it safe? & if I was under twilight sedation would I feel the pain while I'm getting my breast surgery I'm so confused? I need answers please
