Fallout: New Vegas implants

When talking to Doctor Usanagi in the New Vegas Medical Clinic she reveals that she sells implants to augment your physical abilities, and two special implants to augment the player's combat performance. The physical implants behave in the same manner as the Intense Training perk, permanently raising a single statistic by one.

Other special implants are available in Big MT in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

General
The number of implants that can be installed by Dr. Usanagi depends on the player's Endurance. The only way to increase the amount of implant "slots" is boosting the statistic through Intense Training. Temporary bonuses from apparel or drugs are ignored by the game, as is the Endurance implant.

Since the effects of implants are counted as a permanent increase to your SPECIAL, they will affect the perks available to the player.

Regular implants
Physical implants cost 4,000 caps each, and only one of each can be installed. Although implants can be bought when a statistic is at 10, it will confer no benefit.
