What causes nausea after an awake BBL?

August 2, 2023
Asked By:Forceful254880 in Los Angeles, California

I am looking to get an awake bbl with lipo360, but I am nervous about experiencing nausea/vomiting after the procedure. Is the nausea/vomiting usually caused by the post-op narcotics or is it from the local anesthesia? Also, are those narcotics required after surgery or can high dose ibuprofen be a substitute?
