Traditional Cosmetic Surgery Gets A Wakeup Call

New Twist on Trusted Procedures: Surgery without "Going Under" Anesthesia


May 11, 2011 (New York, NY) - Women looking for a way to rejuvenate their aging face or enhance their appearance often investigate plastic surgery options but hesitate to undergo any radical procedures due to the expense and side effects associated with undergoing surgery. JUVA Skin & Laser Center in New York is constantly offering patients new ways to feel comfortable with having a procedure performed by finding new ways to minimize recovery time and side effects. By performing certain surgerires without general anesthesia in the comfort of an accredited surgery center, like the one found at JUVA Skin & Laser Center, risk, recovery time and expenses are reduced.

Adam D. Schaffner, M.D., F.A.C.S, Director of Plastic Surgery at JUVA Skin & Laser Center, is offering an option for those individuals who wish to have a facelift, eyelid lift or breast augmentation but do not want to "go under" anesthesia. By using local anesthesia to numb the face, a person can have a mini-facelift, full facelift or eyelid lift safely performed without having to assume the risks or undesirable side effects associated with general anesthesia. Breast augmentation may also be performed under local anesthesia with IV sedation to avoid risks and side effects associated with general anesthesia.

"At JUVA, our patients come to use for state-of-the-art, specialized procedures in plastic surgery. Being able to perform plastic surgery without having to "go under" anesthesia offers those individuals with busy lives a safe and affordable approach to reversing the signs of aging," said Dr. Adam Schaffner. "At JUVA, we are constantly perfecting the way our patients look while remaining senstitive to their concerns."
