Prosthetic Leg Types and Costs in Dubai (2026)

The cost of a prosthetic leg in Dubai depends primarily on the amputation level, the technology inside the prosthesis, and whether it is custom-fabricated or prefabricated. As a professionally licensed prosthetics clinic in Dubai, Steps Creators has helped hundreds of patients navigate these costs, insurance reimbursement, and device selection.

There are approximately 18,000 people living with limb loss in the UAE, with demand for prosthetic services growing at 6.2% annually through 2030.

Transtibial prosthetics — the most common type — range in cost based on foot and ankle technology:

  • Basic SACH foot prosthetic: AED 5,000 – 12,000
  • Dynamic response carbon foot: AED 12,000 – 35,000
  • Energy-return sports prosthetic: AED 20,000 – 60,000
  • Waterproof activity-specific prosthetic: AED 15,000 – 45,000

Coverage typically ranges from AED 10,000 to AED 50,000 per limb per year, depending on the plan tier.

Steps Creators handles insurance pre-authorization at no charge. We submit the clinical documentation, professionally licensed prescription, and cost breakdown directly to your insurer. Most pre-authorizations are approved within 3–7 business days.
