General or Awake Anesthesia

We are pleased to offer outpatient surgical services that require general anesthesia or conscious sedation at a variety of convinent locations, including Waterfront Surgery Center in Homestead, at East Side Surgery Center in Shadyside, Aestique Surgery Center in Greensburgh, or at UPMC Magee Womens hospital. The choice depends on the level of services, and your potential risk for complications.

Our ambulatory surgery centers are dedicated to the health and well-being of our patients through experienced and compassionate care. For the more complex cases, when the services of a UPMC plastic surgery resident are needed, your operation is performed at either Waterfront or Magee. If an overnight stay or specialized medical care is anticipated, surgery is performed at UPMC Magee.

Patients with smaller or more straightforward procedures can benefit from our unique and highly effective approach to awake anesthesia. Combining specialized local anesthetic formulations and Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocol oral medications, patients can also avoid the downtime and prolonged recovery that is involved with general anesthesia. These technique are perfect for those who are nervous about general anesthetics, have medical problems that preclude general anesthesia, or simply do not have the downtime for longer recovery. Imagine having your breast augmentation in a short 1-hour, comfortable procedure, and then simply walking out of the operating room to enjoy the rest of your day.
