 Calf Augmentation using Fat Grafting Technique (Fat Calf Augmentation)has been performed by Dr. Grossman since 1996 with great success in both, men and women.
This procedure is used to build structure anywhere in the lower portion of the leg. It is ideal for individuals whose legs look too thin, out of proportion, “bowlegged”, post cerebral palsy or any kind of trauma or asymmetry.
Dr. Grossman performs this procedure by removing fat from one or more areas on the body by means of a syringe and a very small cannula (needle) and then, by means of injection, adding fat cells to the area of the leg where volume is lacking. This produces balance and better proportions to the legs with permanent results and without scars.
This procedure is superior to the silicone calf implants in many ways: there are no scars, no difficulty in walking, no pain, immediate return to work, placement of the fat can be done to any area of the leg, chance of infection is almost nil, bleeding is almost nonexistent, no displacement of the fat is ever noted as compared to the implants, which can become displaced and show through the skin.
Fat Calf Augmentation allows women to wear skirts, which they could not have done before. Men will wear shorts without the fear of having skinny legs.
The patients can return to work the very next day with no or minimal discomfort requiring no post-operative pain medications in the majority of patients.
The gym is allowed in just 5 days and being on the beach and swimming is OK in about one week.
