Cranioplasty Manchester

The Alexandra Hospital offer private cranioplasty treatment in Cheadle, Manchester. 

You may require a cranioplasty if a bone defect in the skull needs surgically repairing. This could be due to a previous operation or because of an injury.

A Cranioplasty involves lifting the skin of the scalp and ensuring that the defect or injury where the skull is missing or uneven is replaced with a custom-made implant.

Different types of implants are available, and your consultant will be able to advise you on which replacement is suitable.

Your consultant will recommend a Cranioplasty for several reasons, including to improve neurological function, protection, aesthetic purposes, and pain.

Indeed, a cranioplasty can be performed to cover defects related to previous surgical procedure to improve localised head pain, to improve neurological function in the brain if a certain area of the brain is deemed to be at risk of damage, and for protection if an area of the brain is not covered by the skull.
