What does the €6,950 include?

The price of triceps implants covers your preoperative assessment, consultation, the operation and hospital stay, the implants, follow-up appointments and a follow-up ultrasound.

Do triceps implants need to be combined with biceps implants?

Often, yes. On their own, in an arm with little muscle, they can make it look unbalanced.

Will I need a checkup afterward?

Yes. We do a follow-up ultrasound to check that the implants are intact and in the right position.

They are the same as for any silicone implant: bruising, fluid buildup, persistent swelling, rupture of the implant or a gel leak. If you notice anything unusual, we'll see you again to check.

Will my implants need to be replaced after a set time?

No, but we do recommend long-term follow-up, because an implant can rupture and leak gel.

Triceps Implants

Triceps implants add volume to the back of the upper arm. Combined with biceps implants, they give the arm balanced volume, front and back. Dr. Jesús Lago operates at Clínica 3 de Mayo in Madrid and welcomes patients from the UK, Ireland and beyond.

All-inclusive price: €6,950
Hospital stay: 24 h
Recovery: 10 days

What the Operation Involves

We place the implants at the back of the arm, through an incision in the armpit. We often combine them with biceps implants: on their own, they can make a less muscular arm look unbalanced.

Duration: 1 h
Approach: Through the armpit
Anesthesia: General
