Costs

As already mentioned, the indication for calf implantation is usually a cosmetic treatment intended to trigger an aesthetic change. In these cases, the treatment is not directly medically indicated and therefore the patient is the sole payer for the operation, the inpatient stay, the pre- and post-operative examinations and the material costs. A routine intervention without further complications incurs costs of about two thousand to three thousand Euros.

On top of this, there are usually the costs for the implant of about seven hundred euros. If the treatment is due to disease-related muscle hypotrophy, the health insurance company will cover the costs proportionately or even completely. However, in most cases, the patient is the sole payer in the event of a necessary follow-up operation.
