Discuss this: problem, PONV, with your surgeon, but more importantly, with anesthesiologist or anesthetist. There are very effective drugs for treatment of this common condition.

Best To Ask: the surgeon you're having surgery with. In my practice, I prefer IV Sedation monitored by board certified anesthesiologists. I find its offers several advantages over general anesthesia, including less nausea and a quicker recovery time immediately following surgery. https://www.cosmeticsurg.net/blog/2009/09/02/advantages-of-iv-sedation-over-general-anesthesia-for-cosmetic-surgery/
