Dr Feng is using something that not anesthesia its all natural for your body ....and your recover time

is great and you pee it out right away when you wake up. The local anesthesia they give you now

adays you have to detox that from your body. I am thankful I am not getting anything harmful to

my body so I can recover.

Just make sure when he does the surgery you get capsulectomy done and drains would be nice

for them to take precautions.

Seen the doctor today on it actually..........

Hi ,

I don't know if this helps but my cousin's mother in law had implants

put in back in the early 80's. Her now ex husband was too cheap to

pay for the anesthesia so the doctors used a local and numbed the

whole area when putting the implants in. Although she told me she

would never recommend that they do put them in that way or at least

they did at that time. I think my mouth hit the floor when she told

me that because I cant even imagine but im sure there are people out

there that may be allergic or cant have anesthesia for whatever

reason. I don't know where you live but this was done in Brwyn Mawr

hospital in PA. Hope this helps.
