Improve Appearance of Lower Legs with Calf Implant Surgery
Calf augmentation with the help of implants is a surgical process that helps in enhancing lower portion of the legs. Some people have thin or underdeveloped calf naturally and despite taking good diet and following exercises, their legs remain small. Moreover in some patients lower legs get shrunk due to disease or injury. So, in order to correct the resultant deformity, calf augmentation surgery is performed. Around the globe, many people opt for the surgery purely for cosmetic reasons and head towards Dubai, UAE for getting the best results. If you are also considering calf augmentation surgery in Dubai, Dr. Babak Hatami’s clinic is the best place to bank upon.
Procedure of Calf Augmentation Surgery
Solid Silicone and Silicone Gel Implants are two kinds of implants used for performing the calf augmentation surgery. During the initial visit of patients, medical health of patients along with legs are measures to identify which implants work best for them. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and gets completed within the time span of two-three hours. Patients are advised to lie down on operating table with their face down. A small incision is made at the back of the knee. Then, a salient nerve is located by the surgeon for creating snug pocket between muscles and fascia.
