Can M y Local Cosmetic Surgeon Place One Of Your Custom Jaw Implants?

Q: Dr. Eppley, The result of jaw/chin implants are convincing. I have a query – Can the Jaw implants be made there and shipped to my place ( outside of US ) . And can a local cosmetic surgeon implant it here ? Or is there an alternative for patient outside of US. And what would be the cost of doing so. Expecting a reply soon. 

A: I only design custom implants in which I implant them. There is a strong correlation between understanding the nuances of the design and getting good intraoperative positioning of them with a low risk of complications. I don’t do it simply because I would not be doing you any favors. I would just be setting you and your surgeon up for complications that are best avoided.
