Dr. Israel Santana is a trained and experienced anesthesiologist with extensive knowledge in the art of pain management and surgical care. While often overlooked, an anesthesiologist is an essential part of the surgical team. Nearly every cosmetic surgical procedure, including facelift surgery, mommy makeover surgery, and rhinoplasty, is performed under some degree of anesthesia to ensure patients feel no pain or discomfort during surgery.
Dr. Israel Santana understands that anesthesia care encompasses providing optimal care and comfort for the patient before, during, and after surgery. At your evaluation, Dr. Santana will consider many factors, including your medical history and the type of procedure you are undergoing, to determine the type of anesthesia that works best for you. The goal here is to deliver safe, satisfactory pain relief during surgery and return you to a relatively comfortable state within a few hours after surgery.
