Calf implantsin Lyon and Geneva
Despite an intensive physical activity, some people show a relatively underdeveloped inner side of their calves, sometimes described as “chicken legs”. This unattractive feature can be corrected with the insertion of naturally-shaped implants, resulting in the most discreet effect.
The atrophic inner gastrocnemius muscle can be corrected with an implant subtly placed within the deep tissue layers by means of an incision concealed in the natural crease behind the knee.
The implant volume and shape will be selected during the pre-operative consultation with your surgeon, depending on your overall body shape.
Procedure
This type of surgery, performed under general anaesthetic, lasts for one and a half hours and requires an overnight stay.
Moderately-heeled shoes should be worn for approximately ten days.
Physical exercise is not recommended for one month and driving can be challenging for a period of two weeks.
