Follow up: what is required of "minor" revision surgery to remove "dog ear" from under breasts? Anesthesia?

Small revisions like the one you are talking about to correct "dog ears" can typically be done under local anesthesia in the office. Hope this helps.My best,

Revision or excision of small dog's ears can frequently be performed under local anesthesia in good candidates.  Large Breast revisions may benefit at times from sedation or even general anesthesia.

Dog ears only require sedation when they are very large. The vast majority of this type of revision surgery can be done with simple local anesthesia injection in the office. It involves removing a wedge of the tissue, extending the scar, and re-suturing the incision. In my experience it is not a big deal and is of minimal discomfort to the patient. Good luck with your final step!Best of luck!Dr. SubbioBoard-Certified Plastic SurgeonNewtown Square, PA
