Can I Get 3 Skull Implants At The Same Time?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Hello , would you be able to give me an idea what it would cost for back , top and forehead implants, and if for example you would be able to to 2 of those during the same surgery and the other later ( assuming all 3 at the same time wouldn’t work )

A:When large skull augmentations are being considered the typical goal, if the overall augmentations are to be connected which I assume would be the case for back, top and forehead augmentations, would be to place them all at once as a single connected and smooth augmentation. To do so in most patients requires a first stage scalp expander as almost no scalp can take the volumetric expansion in large skull augmentations at once.

How all of that applies to I can not yet say as I would need to see some head pictures and do some skull augmentation imaging to have a cleat understanding as to your exact head augmentation goals.
