Prosthetic Implants Cost in Bangalore, India

Prosthetic implants is a broad name for artificial devices placed in the body. This page covers facial implants such as chin, cheek and jaw implants, and explains how other implant types differ.

Prosthetic implants can refer to breast, calf, penile, joint or dental implants, each with very different surgery and costs.

UF Health explains that facial implants are usually silicone or porous polyethylene, placed under general anaesthesia, and that risks include infection, asymmetry, shifting and nerve numbness, with allergy being rare.

UF Health notes that swelling and bruising usually settle within a few weeks, and most people return to normal activities in one to two weeks.

Implants may later need revision or replacement.

It is likely to be nearer $6,350 (about ₹6.02 lakh) if several procedures are combined, the operation takes longer, you stay overnight or you choose a more senior surgeon.

• GST

• Pre-operative tests: blood tests, ECG and anaesthetic review.
• Theatre and anaesthesia charges: which rise with operating time.
• Surgeon grade: fees vary with the plastic surgeon's experience.
• GST: may be added, as cosmetic surgery is not exempt healthcare.
• Which implant: facial, breast, calf, penile, joint or dental.
• Implant material and size: silicone or polyethylene.
• Anaesthesia: usually general.
• Follow-up: and possible revision.
