To date, in plastic surgery, balanced anesthesia most fully meets the requirement of patient safety. Choosing an anesthetic, doctors take into account not only the type and duration of the surgical operation, but also the absence of concomitant pathologies in the patient, and also carefully approach the collection of anamnesis.

One of the most popular methods of anesthesia is inhalation anesthesia. It is most often used for operations in the neck, face and head. Using a tube or mask (t. Inhalation method), the patient is given an anesthetic in the gaseous state (ether, fluorotane and nitrous oxide are used). However, there are a number of contraindications, which limits the use of anesthetic. For example, fluorotane is contraindicated for pregnant women, with bronchial asthma and liver disease.

No less common method is non-anional anesthesia. The advantage of such an anesthetic is the minimal negative impact on the patient's body, while the output from anesthesia passes quickly enough.

By combining several anesthetics, one can enhance their therapeutic effect and reduce the toxic effect. During total anesthesia, a complete loss of sensitivity occurs. With local anesthesia, only a certain area of ??the body loses sensitivity. Often spinal epidural local anesthesia is used for intimate plastic surgery.

As a rule, local anesthesia is used when:.

- Blepharoplasty;.

- Liposuction of the chin, face, neck area;.

- filiform lifting of the face;.

- Mentopexy (rejuvenation of the chin);.

- resection of the fatty lump of the cheek;.

- creating a fold of the upper eyelids;.

- anterior platysmoplasty (neck plastic).

Before carrying out the operation with the use of anesthesia, the patient must make a series of tests to avoid the occurrence of adverse reactions and various postoperative complications.
