Liposuction of the calf. Prices, reviews, ratings
General information
Shin plastic surgery will ensure slim and beautiful legs. It is performed using general or local anesthesia. Everything depends on the size and volume of the problem area. Usually the shin area is photographed and the areas where the defects need to be corrected are marked. On average, the operation does not take more than 2 hours.
Before deciding to perform liposuction, you need to remember: with age, the skin loses its elasticity and flexibility. Therefore, in older people after surgery, the skin will not be as elastic as in a younger patient. However, in both cases, it will increase the elasticity index and help avoid fat problems.
Procedure
Preparation
- Before the operation, the doctor studies the patient's medical history, conducts an examination and determines the problem with the shins. The volume of the shin may not always be caused by excess fat deposits. In some cases, the problem lies in the violation of the outflow of blood or lymph. This leads to their stagnation in the vessels. The accumulated fluid eventually penetrates the vessel walls and creates favorable conditions for the appearance of edema. It is they that can create seals similar to excess fat.
In general cases, the patient must pass:
- blood test and ECG;
- other studies as prescribed by the doctor.
The process of performing shin liposuction
To perform plastic surgery, the specialist makes punctures or incisions at the location of the ankles. Usually they are made from the inside and outside. After that, a solution is injected into them, which narrows the vessels and allows the fat to be removed. Using a cannula, it is pumped out and removed from the problem area.
In general cases, only thin cannulas are used, however, with thick skin, medium-sized cannulas can be used. They will help to pump out excess fat cells and give the shin the desired shape. At the end of the session, stitches are applied and special drains are installed.
Rehabilitation period
The recovery process requires wearing underwear with compression filling. It is worn for at least 3 weeks until the contour is fixed. It also helps reduce swelling and bruising.

- drink alcohol and smoke;
