Facilities: We do all injections, spa services, IPL and Laser procedures, Peels, and minor surgery that can be done under local anesthesia in the fully equipped facilities in our office. We perform more complex procedures requiring sedation or general anesthesia in the new Highlands-Cashiers Hospital. The hospital is fully Joint Commission (formerly the Joint Commission for Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations) certified with completely equipped rooms to accommodate modern Plastic Surgery. The nurses who help in the operating rooms are exceptionally trained, have been doing plastic surgical procedures for many years and are current on all new procedures.
When general anesthesia or significant conscious sedation is used, an American Board of Anesthesiology fully certified anesthesiologist administers it. These physicians have had four further years of extensive training past medical school in caring for people under anesthesia, and have passed exhaustive tests to assure that they can handle any emergency that may arise. They are uniquely qualified to look for and prevent events that threaten your safety, treat any acute medical problems that may arise during the procedure, and care for any chronic conditions that you may have. Additionally, they specialize in outpatient anesthesia, which markedly speeds your recovery and reduces most postoperative problems. The Highlands-Cashiers Hospital is the only hospital in North Carolina utilizing exclusively Board Certified Anesthesiologists. Because of this, and the fact that modern light general anesthesia is breathed off as soon as the gasses are turned off, rather than being metabolized slowly by the liver, we believe this is the safest type of anesthesia with the fastest recovery and fewest postoperative problems.
