This review considered various methods for depositing special modifying coatings on medical implants made of titanium alloys including techniques such as electrochemical deposition, sol–gel process, atmospheric plasma deposition, and PVD methods (magnetron sputtering and vacuum arc deposition). The rationale is provided for the use of modifying coatings to improve the performance efficiency of implants. The concept of a functional multilayer coating designed for products operating in the human body environment is proposed. The advantages and disadvantages of various methods for depositing coatings are considered based on the possibility of their use for obtaining modifying coatings for medical purposes deposited on a titanium alloy base.
