Calf augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to address the lack of muscular mass in the calves, sculpt, add volume, and enhance the contour of this area of the body. The goal of calf surgery is to ultimately restore balance and proportion to the calves through the use of implants.

In the calf augmentation procedure, incisions are made on the back of the legs, usually in the natural fold behind the knees, to allow access to the area of the calf muscles. Soft silicone implants are then inserted into the muscles to increase their volume. Subsequently, the incisions are closed with sutures, aiming to minimize visible scars and position them strategically.

Not included: Pre-operative tests, and necessary medications.
Ideal candidates for calf augmentation are those looking to enhance the appearance of their calves due to aesthetic dissatisfaction, loss of muscle volume, or insufficient development. They should be in good overall health and not have significant medical contraindications. Evaluation by a cosmetic surgeon is essential to determine suitability.
The choice of size and shape of the implants in calf augmentation is made considering the patient's anatomy and body proportion. During the assessment consultation, expectations are discussed, detailed measurements are taken, and options for implants that harmoniously fit the patient's body structure are provided.
Yes, calf augmentation surgery does leave scars, but they are strategically placed in the fold and shadows behind the knee, minimizing their visibility. These scars are designed to be discreet and are typically inconspicuous, contributing to aesthetically pleasing results in harmony with the patient's natural anatomy.
The medications are analgesics and antibiotics.
Calf augmentation surgery carries certain risks and potential complications, including bleeding, hematoma formation, fluid accumulation (seroma), healing issues, the risk of infection, and temporary alterations in sensitivity in the treated area.
