general, regional, or local anesthesia.
The operation begins when an anesthesiologist puts the patient to sleep. The anesthesiologist injects drugs into the patient's veins and then places an airway tube in the windpipe to ventilate (provide air for) the patient.
The type of anesthesia that anesthesiologists use in a hospital setting depends on the type of injury. Three types of anesthesia used are local, regional, and general anesthesia.
General Anesthesia
The surgery is done under general anesthesia.
Various types of anesthesia can be used for liposuction procedures. If a small of amount of fat is being removed from a limited number of areas local anesthesia with a light sedative to make you feel drowsy and relaxed may be considered. When treating larger areas, general anesthesia is typically used causing you to be asleep during the procedure. Together, you and surgeon will select the type of anesthesia that provides the most safe and effective level of comfort for your surgery.
The length of the operation depends on what type of operation it is. Since animals need to be under full anesthesia for things like mole removals, that adds time to even the simplest procedures.
