Calf Augmentation with Implants
Achieve sculpted, well-defined calves with our calf implant surgery at A1 Surgery Center in Jeddah – KSA. This procedure is expertly designed to enhance your lower leg contours and boost your confidence with a natural-looking and proportionate appearance.
Calf implants are prosthetic devices crafted from solid silicone, meticulously designed to augment the size and shape of the calf muscles. These implants are soft and flexible, closely resembling the natural feel of the calf muscle tissue.
Primarily used for cosmetic purposes, calf implants effectively improve the appearance of the legs, creating better body proportion and symmetry. They can also restore calf muscle size and shape in cases of injury or disease-related muscle atrophy.
During calf implant surgery, a skilled surgeon makes incisions typically located behind the knee or in the mid-calf region. The silicone implant is carefully inserted into a pocket created within the calf muscle and secured with sutures or similar materials. Following implant placement, the incision is meticulously closed using sutures or surgical staples.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and generally lasts several hours. Post-surgery, patients are advised to wear a compression garment for several weeks to minimize swelling and provide support to the implant. Most individuals can resume work and light activities within one to two weeks, with complete recovery typically taking several weeks.
As with any surgical intervention, calf implant surgery carries inherent risks and potential complications such as infection, bleeding, nerve damage, or implant displacement. Long-term implications of calf implants, including possible implant failure or the need for revision surgery, should be carefully considered and discussed with a qualified plastic surgeon.
Patients contemplating calf implants are encouraged to thoroughly discuss their objectives, potential risks, and benefits of the procedure with our experienced team. A well-informed decision, taking into account individual health, lifestyle factors, and aesthetic goals, ensures the best possible outcome.
