Gynecomastia under local anesthesia

May 9, 2018
Asked By:pascalremi in Montréal, Québec, Canada

Hi doctors, I am planning on getting a gyneco surgery during a long vacation. I read about general anesthesia and gyneco, the post-op is allegedly more painful than if it's performed under local. I was told there is fat, but also extra tissue in both of my breasts. I do not have a high tolerance to pain. Does any of you perform gyneco under local (which I would prefer)? Any clinic I called performs gynecomastia under general. I am willing to travel...
