Among aesthetic or cosmetic surgeries, breast augmentation was the most frequently performed and the endoscopic transaxillary approach has become the preferred incision for Asian women. As breast augmentation must be performed under general anesthesia accompanied by its effects and potential complications, types of general anesthesia may affect the quality of recovery. Currently, the two most common techniques of general anesthesia are inhalation anesthesia (IH) and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). The effects of these types of general anesthesia on the quality of recovery have been investigated for numerous surgical procedures. However, no prior studies have analyzed different types of anesthesia used for performing transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation. This prospective, parallel, randomized controlled study will evaluate the effects of inhalation anesthesia vs. total intravenous anesthesia on the quality of recovery in patients undergoing transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation.

Drug Desflurane

Anesthesia is maintained by desflurane in an oxygen air mixture of 60/40%. If inadequate depth of anesthesia is observed, the end-expiratory concentration of desflurane would be increased.

Drug Propofol

Anesthesia is maintained by propofol 100-200 μg/kg/min. If inadequate depth of anesthesia is observed, the rate of propofol infusion would be increased.

IH group Experimental

Inhalation anesthesia will be given during transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation.

TIVA group Active Comparator

Total intravenous anesthesia will be given during transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation.
