Sedation anesthesia vs general anesthesia

The hospital where I want to get surgery is recommending general anesthesia. Since they have to harvest my own rib cartilage, they said it would be dangerous if I moved, so we should do general anesthesia.. Has anyone here had rhinoplasty under general anesthesia? I looked it up a bit on YouTube, and there were some people saying general anesthesia is safer than sedation anesthesia..ㅠ I've had sedation anesthesia several times, but this is my first time with general anesthesia, so I'm hesitating a bit. They said not to worry because an anesthesiology specialist will be in the surgery with us, but honestly I'm scared. I'm afraid I'll close my eyes and open them and it'll be 5 years later, or that I won't wake up at all.. Have I watched too many movies?ㅋㅋㅋ ㅠㅠ
