We use generous amounts of long-acting local anesthetics to have you wake up without pain. For your continued comfort for days after surgery, we also use a “pain pump” to continue to drip local anesthetic solution into the breasts and tummy. The pain pump is like a small anesthetic-filled balloon that fits in a fanny pack with tiny catheters (tubes) placed into the breasts and tummy during the procedure. The combination of injecting local anesthetics during surgery and the post-op pain pump are remarkably effective in reducing post-op pain.
