Regional Anesthesia

Regional anesthesia makes a specific region of the body numb by blocking the nerve supply to that area, without making the patient unconscious. An example of this is spinal anesthesia, which is often used for women who are in the process of giving birth. In many ways, regional anesthesia is much like local anesthesia, except regional is used for a larger area of the body. 

In most cases, regional anesthesia is not used for breast augmentation surgery.
