Custom PEEK facial implants

Question

Hi, I'm currently planning on getting double jaw surgery including a sliding genioplasty to fix my anterior open-bite and mandibular retrusion. Jaw surgery should also improve my airway so less breathing through my mouth. After DJS, I want to get custom PEEK implants to improve the aesthetic components of my face. I want jaw angle implants and possibly cheek/orbital floor implants if necessary. How much would custom PEEK implants cost?

Hello,
Regarding your planned double jaw surgery, it's a great idea to consider the additional procedures you mentioned, such as the cheek/infraorbital implants and jaw angle implants, if they are needed. Combining these procedures on the same day can offer several benefits.
Firstly, it allows you and your doctor to visualize the overall effect of all the implants together, ensuring a more harmonious and balanced outcome. This comprehensive approach helps in achieving your desired aesthetic goals.
Moreover, opting for a complete procedure on the same day can be more cost-effective. It means you will have a single expense for the combined surgeries, potentially saving you money compared to doing the additional implants separately on different occasions.
Another advantage is reduced downtime. By undergoing all the procedures together, you'll have a unified recovery period, which can be more convenient and efficient.
As for the cost, prices for these procedures can vary significantly based on factors like your location, the surgeon's fees, and the complexity of the surgeries. There is no standardized price nationally or internationally, so it's best to have a discussion with your chosen practitioner to get specific cost estimates and understand the expectations.
