Liposuction of the calves and the knee area is suitable for people who wish to improve the contour of these areas, reducing localized accumulations of fat that are resistant to diet and physical exercise. This procedure helps achieve a more harmonious and slimmer appearance of the lower limbs, with a clearer definition of their shape.
Liposuction of the calves and knees is performed by inserting fine cannulas through small incisions to suction out excess fat. The procedure allows precise contouring, without affecting the surrounding structures. The procedure is individually adapted, depending on the areas and the volume of fat to be removed.
The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, for the patient’s comfort, or in certain cases under general anesthesia. The duration of the procedure is generally between 1 and 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the treated area.
It is normal for edema and bruising to appear in the calf and knee area, which can be managed with cold compresses and prescribed medication. Wearing a special elastic garment is recommended to support the tissues.
Pain and discomfort decrease gradually. The patient can resume light activities, avoiding intense physical effort and prolonged standing.
Edema continues to reduce, and the shape of the calves and knees becomes increasingly clear. Moderate physical exercise can be gradually resumed, with the doctor’s approval.
The final results can be observed after approximately 3 months, when the tissues have completely adapted and the swelling has disappeared.
The risks are reduced through careful preoperative assessment, adherence to surgical protocols and rigorous postoperative monitoring.
The final results are generally observed after 2-3 months, when the swelling has completely reduced and the tissues have adapted to the new shape.
After liposuction, the removed fat cells do not regenerate, but fat can return in other areas if a healthy lifestyle is not maintained.
The procedure is performed under anesthesia, and the postoperative discomfort is moderate and controlled with medication. The pain decreases significantly in the first few days after the procedure.
It is recommended to wear the elastic garments for approximately 3-4 weeks to support healing and prevent the accumulation of fluid.
