It : It depends on whether the surgeon, usually a board certified plastic surgeon--is planning to do a very small area, i.e. On the chin.. Or is planning to do something as radical as complete body re-sculpturing. In the first instance, it is likely that local anesthesia might be the anesthetic of choice.

It is absolutely essential to investigate where your procedure will be done and to make sure that the facility has a board certified anesthesiologist performing your anesthetic (unless the surgeon is injecting local anesthetics without sedation). Likewise, it is also important the all of the proper equipment for resuscitation be available in the facility.
