What is the cost of facial implants?

The average cost of cheek implants is $2,837 and the average cost of chin augmentation is $2,236, according to 2016 statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Facial implant costs can vary. A surgeon's cost may be based on his or her experience, the type of procedure used and the geographic location of the office.

Many plastic surgeons offer patient financing plans for facial implant surgery, so be sure to ask.

Facial implant costs may include:

• Anesthesia fees
• Hospital or surgical facility costs
• Medical tests
• Prescriptions for medication
• Surgeon's fee

When choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area for facial implants, remember that the surgeon's experience and your comfort with him or her are just as important as the final cost of the surgery.

Are facial implants covered by health insurance?

Most health insurance plans will not cover facial implant surgery, related complications or another surgery to revise the appearance of your face. You must carefully review your health insurance policy.
