How Long Is Recovery From A Custom Skull Implant?
Q: Dr. Eppley, Hello doctor I wanted to ask you how much does the procedure for correcting a flat head cost and what is required for this how long does the operation and recovery take?
A: You are referring to a back of the head custom skull implant. This implant is made from a 3D skull CT scan that the patient obtains where they live.
The operation for skull implant placement is 90 minutes done under general anesthesia. Recovery is largely about swelling which takes 10 to 14 days to significantly resolve.
