Calf Implants
Calf implant cosmetic surgery goes a long way in contouring and adding body to the lower legs. Your plastic surgeon will help you understand various aspects of the surgery during the initial pre-op consultation. The surgeon will also talk about the estimated or actual costs related to the surgery. Responsible cosmetic surgeons make it a point to help their patients understands all factors related to a surgery before going any further.
Health insurance doesn’t usually cover elective procedures, like calf implant surgery. However, you can always access various different financing options. These can help you attain the proportionate and toned legs you always wanted in a convenient and affordable manner. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides calf augmentation surgery to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.
Overall Costs Depend on the Extent of Procedure
Calf implant procedure involves inserting solid silicon or silicon gel within the natural muscles or contours of the lower legs. The surgery helps in enhancing the overall balance and appearance of the legs. Your plastic surgeon may sculpt the implant depending on your requirements and aesthetic goals. You can have the surgery performed under local anesthesia or mild intravenous sedative to keep the overall costs down.
However, the final call regarding use of local or general anesthesia would be up to the surgeon. You may need an anesthesiologist or a registered nurse anesthetist as well in case monitored anesthesia care (MAC) is required. General anesthesia is required for multiple combined procedures, such as thigh lift or dual implant insertion.
However, combined surgical procedures come out to be more cost effective in the long run since you do not need to pay for surgery center costs, multiple surgeons’ fees, or anesthesiologist’s fee.
Cost is Determined by Surgeon’s Fee
Experienced and qualified plastic surgeons usually charge less than untrained or new surgeons. You should always work with a board-certified plastic surgeon since they employ quality standards and follow the latest safety protocols. They also use cutting-edge surgical technology.
All reputable plastic surgeons ensure highest quality of service and care, even if it means higher overhead costs. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) advises to choose the best surgeon for your goals and to place cost as a secondary priority. Your safety is paramount and should not be compromised.
Overall Costs Depend on Practice Location
Cosmetic procedures in metropolitan cities and urban city centers are costlier as compared to sparsely populated interior or remote towns. Real estate and cost of living drives up cost of medical procedures. You should always consider the difference in the overall costs of different practices before choosing a surgeon.
Consider Financing Options
Although insurance coverage may not be possible for an elective procedure, you don’t have to miss out on getting a calf implant surgery because of a limitation of funds. There are several third-party medical care financing firms that offer loans and other financing options at convenient and affordable terms.
