ANAESTHESIA OPTIONS FOR YOUR COSMETIC SURGERY
The London Centre for Cosmetic Surgery offers a modern
and patient-friendly approach to anaesthesia for its
aesthetic surgery patients: TIVA - Total Intravenous
Anaesthesia. TIVA, a newer anaesthetic technique very
well suited to small to medium sized operations, has
become possible since the advent of a new generation of
intravenous medications with unique properties. These
remarkable medications, when administered by a qualified
anaesthetist in a properly monitored setting, provide
comfortable sleep without many of the unpleasant side
effects of a full, traditional general anaesthetic.
Unlike most general anaesthetics, there is minimal
decrease of the breathing rate and blood pressure so
patients breathe calmly and slowly on their own. No
breathing tubes or ventilators are required. TIVA
patients sleep soundly during the entire operation,
feeling no pain and experiencing no anxiousness. They
wake quickly and comfortably with no memory of their
procedure. The technique is used commonly in the United
States for most outpatient cosmetic surgery procedures
with an extremely high degree of patient safety and
patient acceptance. |
