Do you need general anesthesia for cosmetic stitches?

Whether or not to have general anesthesia is determined by the specific procedure and has no correlation to cosmetic needle stitches; cosmetic needle stitches are sutures that reduce surgical incision scarring. Anesthesia is available in the form of intrathecal anesthesia, general anesthesia, and local anesthesia. General anesthesia, referred to as general anesthesia, is usually used for more complex and major surgeries, intrathecal anesthesia is used for the lower extremities or lower abdomen, and local anesthesia is used when superficial surgeries are performed. Therefore, whether or not to have general anesthesia is determined by the specific surgery and has no relevance to cosmetic needle suturing. The method of cosmetic needle suture mainly refers to the intradermal suture of the surgical incision. Usually, the needle of the suture enters and exits under the skin, and there is no suture on the surface of the skin, and the suture can be self-absorbed, which can make the surface of the skin leave no additional traces other than the surgical incision, and the skin is aligned very smoothly and tightly. It is recommended to choose a reasonable anesthesia according to your situation under the guidance of your physician.
