Here we put you into a <strong>Deep sleep, in which you perceive neither pain nor the passage of time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Features of General Anaesthesia:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your breathing, circulation, and consciousness will be continuously monitored by specialist anaesthetists.<\/li>\n<li>You will sleep throughout and won't notice the procedure.<\/li>\n<li>General anaesthesia is used for more extensive procedures and for implantations under the pectoral muscle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Modern technologies make general anaesthesia particularly gentle. Nausea and fatigue, which were common in the past, now occur only very rarely.<\/p>\n<h3>Sedation<\/h3>\n<p>Bei der Sedierung werden Sie in einen <strong>relaxed, sleep-like state<\/strong> while the breast surgery is being performed.
