What is a M.A.C. (Monitored Anesthesia care)?
This is anesthesia that allows you to remain awake during your surgery; however, you will be given drugs that will keep you comfortable while your surgery is being done. Your surgeon will numb the area that he or she will be operating on as well to assure that your will not have any pain during your surgery. This is a very safe anesthetic that most patients tolerate very well.
