Q: Dr. Eppley, Good afternoon. I would be interested in a skull augmentation and reshaping with the use of scalp expanders. Could you tell me how long I need to keep the expanders on so that the skin can be wide enough for the operation? And what are your prices for this operation, including the cost of the implant? Thank you in advance.
A: Most scalp tissue expanders in two stage skull augmentation procedures are in place from 6 to 8 weeks.
