tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"false\"><p>General anesthesia is used to anesthetize patients for painful surgical procedures. During the operation, you won\u2019t feel any pain and will be under the watchful eye of an anesthesiologist. General anesthesia is administered by the anesthesiologist either injecting drugs into your veins or having you inhale gas (via tube) \u2013 or both.\u00a0After respiratory support is provided, the surgery can begin.<\/p><h3>Where Are The Surgeries Involving General Anesthesia Performed? Is It Safe?<\/h3><p>Surgeries involving general anesthesia are performed at any full-fledged hospital authorized by the Ministry of Health (in Turkey).<\/p><p>And yes, general anesthesia is both safe and successful \u2013 thanks to the existing drugs and technology!<\/p><h3>Which Plastic Surgeries Feature General Anesthesia?<\/h3><ul><li>Rhinoplasty<\/li><li>Mammoplasty for women (breast reduction, augmentation, lifting)<\/li><li>Gynecomasty for men (female breast augmentation)<\/li><li>Gluteoplasty (bbl, butt implants)<\/li><li>Body shaping via liposuction<\/li><li>Postbariatric surgery (abdomen, thigh, arm, 360 total body lift)<\/li><li>Face lift<\/li><li>Blepharoplasty<\/li><li>Genital aesthetics (women and men)<\/li><li>Otoplasty (for children aged between 6 and 13)<\/li><li>Almond eye aesthetics<\/li><li>Brow lift<\/li><li>Genioplasty (implant, shaping)<\/li><\/ul><h3>What Do I Need To Keep In Mind Before General Anesthesia? How Should I Come To The Hospital?<\/h3><p>First, Dr. Ozsular will have you go for several tests and analyses a few days before the surgery. He may tell you to temporarily stop using certain medications \u2013 in which case you should do so as stated by him. If you actively take aspirin or any form of anticoagulant, tell your doctor and continue only if he tells you to do so.<\/p><p>Routine prep work for the anesthesia is done 1 \u2013 2 days before the scheduled date of your surgery.<\/p><p>You are allowed to eat as well as drink water until 00:00 (12 AM) the night before your surgery. You will need to fast (including no water) for at least six hours prior to the procedure. (If you forget to do so, your surgery may be postponed or canceled.)<\/p><p>Don\u2019t forget to take warm shower before you sleep the night before the surgery, and don\u2019t put on make-up or hair gel.<\/p><p>Don\u2019t wear nail polish or enamel or fashion nails.<\/p><p>Don\u2019t wear wigs. Don\u2019t wear any jewelry (including piercings) \u2013 your body should be free of metal.<\/p><p>Also, don\u2019t forget to put together an overnight bag \u2013 including loose clothes (preferably with zippers\/buttons), shoes, etc. \u2013 before you come in for surgery.<\/p><h3>The Procedure Day<\/h3><p>When you arrive at the hospital an hour before the operation, you will be taken to your room to rest until your surgery. Dr. Ozsular and his assistant will come and visit you.<\/p><p>You\u2019ll be taken to the operation room when it\u2019s time for surgery, and wake up with a brand new nose, breasts, or even body.<\/p><h3>Post-Surgery<\/h3><p>You will be placed into a corset (if necessary) and bandaged whilst asleep. You may feel dizzy and drowsy for the first few hours after you wake up \u2013 this is normal and temporary. Some patients report experiencing slight nausea.<\/p><p>About 4 to 6 hours after surgery, you\u2019ll be able to start eating by drinking a light soup.<\/p><p>You don\u2019t feel any pain when you wake up because you\u2019ll be under the effect of analgesics.<\/p><p>After the operation, Dr. Ozsular will visit you, and inform you about how your surgery went.<\/p><p>Please take all of Dr. Ozsular\u2019s orders after surgery seriously.<\/p><h3>Are General Anesthesia And Being Asleep The Same Thing?<\/h3><p>No. Whilst they both resemble one another, they are not the same thing. When asleep, all it takes is a strong stimulant to wake you up. When you\u2019re under general anesthesia, only your anesthesiologist can wake you up upon doctor\u2019s orders.<\/p><h3>Does General Anesthesia Come With Risks?<\/h3><p>Nothing in medicine doesn\u2019t come without risks! Mind you, the same\u00a0 applies to life too \u2013 driving a car, crossing the street, and even sitting at home all come with their own risks, too. But none of the above stops us from living and enjoying life. Anesthesia is no different!<\/p><p>General anesthesia is widely used in all branches of surgery, not just plastic. \u00a0Existing anesthetic drugs and developing technology \u2013 not to mention a doctor\u2019s meticulous hands \u2013 allow millions of patients around the world to get safely anesthetized and re-awakened every day.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2282\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Local Anesthesia<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2282\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2282\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>As its name suggests, local anesthes\u0131a is a locally applied (i.e. regional) type of anesthesia. Specialists prefer to use them in minor operations.<\/p><h3>Injection<\/h3><p>Some local anesthetics get injected via thin needle into your subcutaneous tissue, where the surgery is to be performed, to numb it. This can include a nerve trace to block the nerve. It takes effect almost immediately once done. It loses its effect after a while &#8211; namely when the active substance in it dissolves, thus causing your pain and aches to return. How long it takes effect for depends on how much is used and when it takes action. You don\u2019t need to fast or have any prep done beforehand.<\/p><p>During such procedures, you are conscious but won\u2019t feel any pain.<\/p><h3>Creams And Solutions<\/h3><p>Other local anesthetics take the form of creams or solutions that numb your skin superficially due to the active ingredients in them. As they only have a short effect time, they are therefore intended to reduce the severity of already minimal pain during small- injection procedures (e.g. Botox and fillers). You are conscious. Hence, you don\u2019t need to fast or have any prep done beforehand.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2283\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Epidural Anesthesia<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2283\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2283\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Severe pain from major surgeries can affect patients both psychologically and physically. Epidural anesthesia is the most effective form of anesthesia you can have done when you wake up from surgery. It, moreover, makes you more comfortable after surgery \u2013 allowing you to walk, fulfill your needs, and rest without pain.<\/p><p>Epidural anesthesia is applied when you\u2019re still asleep \u2013 thus you won\u2019t feel catheters in your waist later on. An anesthesiologist will determine beforehand manually where to do this, and clean this area with an antiseptic solution. Next, he gently pushes the needle in until it reaches your epidural cavity (via the correct insertion point). Then, the needle gets immobilized, and a thin plastic catheter gets passed through it. The needle is removed and the catheter is fixed. At the end of the surgery, anesthesia is administered from the fixed catheter Thus, a full anesthesia is provided before you wake up.<\/p><p>Your body will go numb wherever you get the epidural \u2013 namely your \u00a0abdomen, the lower part of your thorax, or your legs (albeit they\u2019ll still be warm). Epidural anesthesia is meant to block your pain conduction and sense of touch, but they won\u2019t limit your mobility.<\/p><p>Thus, you won\u2019t feel any pain or ache when you come around. Afterwards, you\u2019ll continue to get local analgesics intermittently with specific doses for the first few days (48 hours in general) via a small remote control attached to your catheter.<\/p><h3>Advantages Of Epidural Anesthesia<\/h3><p>With epidural anesthesia:<\/p><ul><li>You won\u2019t feel pain when you wake from surgery.<\/li><li>You\u2019ll be comfortable after surgery.<\/li><li>You\u2019ll be able to move around without being in pain.<\/li><li>Your bowel movements will return to normal, and more quickly.<\/li><li>You\u2019ll recover quicker.<\/li><li>You\u2019ll feel more positive and motivated.<\/li><\/ul><p>Epidural anesthesia is reliable and successful \u2013 when administered by a specialist anesthesiologist!<\/p><h3>Which Surgeries Feature Epidural Anesthesia?<\/h3><ul><li>Any surgery conducted on your waist, abdomen, butt, or legs<\/li><li>Full abdominoplasty<\/li><li>Mini abdominoplasty<\/li><li>Thigh lift<\/li><li>360 total body lift<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2284\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Sedation Anesthesia<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2284\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2284\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Sedation anesthesia essentially puts you temporarily to sleep via specific drugs injected into your veins.

Spinal anesthesia is preferred in surgeries that take place below the umbilicus (i.e. your lower torso).<\/p><p>During spinal anesthesia, the drug will then be injected into you via a catheter. An anesthesiologist will determine beforehand manually where to do this, and clean this area with an antiseptic solution. Next, He gently pushes the needle in until it reaches your spinal cavity (via the correct insertion point). Then, the needle gets immobilized, and a thin plastic catheter gets passed through it and fixed. Afterwards, the needle is removed and the anesthetic is fed into via the catheter. The anesthetic will take full effect roughly 10 to 20 minutes thereafter \u2013 your lower body will be completely numb.
