Breast Implant Exchange Using Pronox - Pleasantly Surprised

WORTH IT
After having saline implants for 16 years, I finally made the decision to have them replaced with new silicone implants by Dr. D and it was an amazing experience! My procedure was done using Pronox (nitrous oxide) commonly known as “laughing gas” as the sedation technique. Although I was a little nervous with the thought of being awake during surgery, I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable and relaxed I was during the procedure. Also, because the gas wears off quickly, recovery was a breeze! I was not groggy and disoriented after the procedure like most people would be with IV sedation or general anesthesia. In fact, I continued my daily duties right after surgery, without over doing it of course. When my husband picked me up, he actually said it did not seem like I just had a procedure done because of how cognitive and lively I was afterward. From my experience with Pronox, if this option is ever available for your procedure, I would highly recommend it! I would do it over again using this sedation technique without hesitation. I am very satisfied with my results and love my new and improved breasts. Thank you for everything, Dr. D and staff!

Very happy with my new “gummy bear” silicone breast implants. They are a nice upgrade from my previous saline implants that caused quite a bit of rippling.
