What are Calf Implants?

Calf implants are a cosmetic procedure designed to increase the shape and size of the calves, often for individuals looking to achieve a more defined or balanced lower leg appearance. The procedure involves placing silicone implants into the calves through incisions behind the knee. This surgery is sought by people who struggle to develop calf muscles despite exercise or have a smaller lower leg structure. Calf implants can also be used for reconstructive purposes, such as after injury or congenital conditions, to increase symmetry and address overall leg contour.

Who May Benefit

Fitness enthusiasts wanting more definition.
Individuals with slim calves seeking fullness.
People needing reconstruction after injury or illness.
Those with uneven calves aiming for increased symmetry.

How is the procedure performed?

Consultation and Planning

The procedure begins with a consultation where the surgeon assesses the patient's health and aesthetic goals. A personalised surgical plan is then developed based on the desired outcomes.

Anaesthesia

Anaesthesia and Incision

On surgery day, anaesthesia is administered for comfort and safety. The surgeon makes incisions in discreet locations, such as behind the knee, to access the calf area.

Implant Placement and Closure

The surgeon creates pockets in the calf muscles to insert the implants, increasing their size and shape. After positioning the implants, the incisions are closed with sutures and bandaged to aid recovery.

What is the Recovery like?

Recovery from Calf Implants typically involves a few key stages.
  • Rest and limit physical activity for a few days to aid healing.
  • Manage discomfort with prescribed pain medications as needed.
  • Attend follow-up appointments for monitoring and suture removal.
  • Gradually resume activities, avoiding heavy lifting for several weeks.

What are the Risks?

Calf implant surgery carries certain risks, including infection, scarring, and asymmetry. Patients may also experience changes in sensation or nerve damage in the treated area. There is a possibility of implant rupture or displacement, which may require additional surgery. It’s important to discuss these risks thoroughly with your surgeon to understand the potential complications and steps you can take to reduce them.
