Calf Volume Increase with Implant Placement

How do calf implants work to improve volume and symmetry?

The placement of silicone implants in the calves is a procedure to improve the appearance and symmetry of the muscles of the lower legs by adding volume and definition.

It is mainly aimed at those people with a lack of muscle tone or who have areas of atrophy in that area.

In the case of asymmetries prior to the procedure, this type of intervention can be corrected almost 100% by placing implants of different volumes to compensate and improve the symmetry of the body.

One of the main precautions to take into account during recovery time is sleeping on your stomach.

Postoperative care and common risks of calf implant placement

• The procedure time varies between 3 to 4 hours.
• Recovery time: 3 to 4 weeks with proper care.
• Most frequent complications: Hematomas, bleeding, asymmetries, wound dehiscence (one or more points opening), implant rejection, seromas (accumulation of fluid in the cavity of the implant placed), infections.
