Calf shaping – What does it consists of?

Posted by John Smith on April 7th, 2022

With spring well established and enjoying good weather for weeks, we can say that summer clothes are ready to see the light of day in our wardrobes. However, starting to wear lighter clothing also involves showing certain areas of the body that could make us feel uncomfortable.

In the case of women, the calves are a particularly delicate area. After the torso, it is the one that most women point out as a source of insecurity (even above the chest or arms).

But just like other parts of the body, the calves can be reshaped surgically with amazing results.

These are very special procedures that should not be performed by any surgeon, but only those who have completed their training in Reconstructive Plastic Surgery.

Calf shaping: volume increase:

People who have little volume in this area of ??the body may need a calf augmentation. It is an intervention in which, obviously, the objective is to increase and model the volume of the twins area.

It is possible to perform the procedure in three different ways to increase the calves:

- Calf augmentation with prostheses: With which special prostheses are placed for the area, thus increasing its volume. The intervention is performed through a small incision near the posterior crease of the knee, making it almost invisible.

- Calf augmentation with fat: After performing liposuction –with which an unsightly accumulation of fat from another area of ??the body is removed-, the aspirated fat is processed and grafted onto this area of ??the body, remodeling the figure.

Calf shaping: size reduction:

We can also find the opposite case, in which the patient needs Calf muscle reduction because the definition of the muscles is too aggressive or they have too large a total volume, affecting the aesthetic set.

Calf reduction Botox can produce a selective atrophy of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles with radiofrequency, a process through which the motor nerves of the calf muscles are located and the nerve impulse that reaches the fibers is reduced.

The specific anatomy of this part of the body, and the reality that dictates that any intervention in this area will be very visible, makes it necessary to be prudent when choosing the medical team that is in charge of this intervention.
