What is Calf Augmentation?
Calf implants, also known as calf augmentation, helps improve the contour of the lower leg by creating a suitable balance between the upper and lower leg, and a firm and shapely appearance for individuals who lack calf muscles or want to enhance the outline in their lower legs.
Calf implants are also a great solution for people who are bow-legged. In this case, the implants are placed in the inner portion of the lower leg.
A Good Candidate for Calf Augmentation
The minimum age requirement for this procedure is 18. It is important that the muscles are fully developed before deciding to undergo the calf augmentation operation.
Calf Augmentation Procedure
The first step is a detailed consultation with your surgeon, who will determine the best method that will achieve your desired end results. You doctor will determine whether or not your procedure should be outpatient or inpatient. Calf Implant Surgery is a muscle augmentation procedure. Incisions are made behind the knees for less visibility.
Pockets are formed where the silicone implants will be placed. Depending on your desired results and the current shape of your lower leg, an implant will be placed either on the inside, the outside, or both sides of each leg, over your pre-existing calf muscle.
The incisions are closed up with dissolving or removable stitches, in which case you may or may not have to return to your hospital or clinic for a follow-up visit to have your stitches removed.
Average Duration of Calf Implant Surgery: 1-2 hours
Risks and Side Effects of Calf Augmentation
Potential side effects and risks of calf augmentation may include allergic reaction to anesthesia, shifting of the implant, bleeding, unwanted scarring, infection, temporary numbness, soreness, and stiffness.
Recovery from Calf Augmentation
Swelling and bruising is to be expected. Walking will be painful for the first couple of days following the surgery.
Over-the-counter pain medications should be sufficient enough to relieve pain and soreness after your surgery. Be sure to avoid anti-inflammatory and blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin for several weeks following the surgery. As long as your work does not require strenuous activity, returning to work within 3 weeks should be safe.
The estimated recovery time is 4-6 weeks.
Results of Calf Augmentation
You will notice the results of your surgery immediately, however once you have fully healed and the swelling and bruising subdued, you should be very happy with the end results.
