Dr. Williams introduces the ProNox machine, which administers ""laughing gas"" in an inhaled mixture of 50% oxygen and 50% nitrous oxide. Patients administer ProNox themselves, which takes effect in about a minute. This, in conjunction with local anesthesia, decreases pain or discomfort and ensures that patients are as relaxed as possible during their plastic surgery procedure.
Nitrous oxide has been used safely for decades during dental procedures, and is frequently termed “laughing gas”. It is not addictive and it does not sedate patients. ProNox helps patients avoid general anesthesia, which is a more expensive option that can cause grogginess and nausea. Since the effects of ProNox wear off quickly, patients can even drive themselves to and from their procedure.
Patients at the Plastic Surgery Center at Williams can use the ProNox machine with procedures like a weekend lift, a blepharoplasty, liposuction, and more.
