I have an irrational fear of needles. I'm seeing videos of people getting implants and I'm noticing some look like they are givin an IV or something in their arm right before surgery. Do I have to get that in my arm in order to get breast implants?

Answer: IV fro Surgery? It is standard for any patient undergoing a surgery that involves even a small amount of sedation to have an IV. This allows both medeicine and rehydrating fluids to move through into your body throughout the surgery. In my practice, if a patient has a fear of needles, a medicine can be prescribed and given beforehand to sedate a person and help alleviate their fears of a needle. Usually the IV comes out before the patient knows what is going on as well. I hope this helps.

Answer: IV for surgery Yes, you will likely require IV access for your breast augmentation surgery. This will be for fluid management and administration of medications.
