About Liposuction for Calves

We rely on our fat stores for energy and warmth. When you “burn” calories, you are drawing upon the energy in your fat cells to fuel your movement. However, some fat deposits are extremely difficult to shed. A liposuction treatment can provide the support you need to supplement your healthy lifestyle.

When a person reaches adolescence, they maintain a constant number of fat cells. These cells can grow in size when we gain weight or shrink due to weight loss, but the total number of cells remains stable. Liposuction actually removes certain fat cells, decreasing their numbers. If you have unsightly bulges on or around your calves, then Advanced Body Sculpting can address your concerns with a safe, minimally invasive liposuction solution.

Vaser Liposuction for Calves

Traditional liposuction procedures use tumescent liquid to soften and loosen your unwanted fat. A thin vacuum tube called a cannula is inserted through a small incision. This cannula delivers the tumescent liquid, contours your calves, and removes the targeted fat. Vaser Liposuction represents a huge leap forward in the art of body contouring. 

Vaser is an acronym for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance. The ultrasound waves emitted by a Vaser device help break up fat surrounding your calves to prepare the area for treatment. The cannula vacuum tube then uses liquid and precise contouring maneuvers to shape your calf and slim your overall look.

Preparation for Calf Liposuction

During your comprehensive consultation, you will be given detailed preparation instructions. Please follow these prior to your calf liposuction appointment. Pick up any medications you may need after the surgery during this preparation period.

Set up a recovery station where you can relax and recuperate after your liposuction of the calves. Follow your surgeon’s advice regarding how to elevate your legs on pillows, for example, to assure a speedy recovery. Wear loose clothing on the day of your procedure to allow for comfort once the liposuction treatment is complete.

The Calves Liposuction Procedure

The exact nature of your calf procedure will depend on which type of liposuction you choose. If you and you surgeon opt for the Vaser method, then ultrasound waves will gently loosen the unwanted fat deposits on and around your calves. Your surgeon strategically places your incisions so they are almost impossible to see. Once the fat is softened, the cannula vacuums the fat cells from your calf area, contouring as it goes.

Please ask your ABS team if you want multiple liposuction procedures to be performed during the same session, and consult our Specials page to take advantage of our package rates. 

Recovery

After your liposuction procedure, you will be fitted for compression stockings to cradle your calves. Please wear these compression garments consistently, except when you shower or bathe. Keep your calves covered for about three weeks following your surgery. 

Drink plenty of fluids and eat light meals in the ensuing 48 hours. You can gradually progress to a regular, nutritious diet to promote optimal healing. If you experience significant discomfort or concerns contact ABS to discuss pain management options or to schedule a follow up appointment to monitor your healing.

Avoid strenuous activity and calf-centric exercises for 2-3 weeks. Keep the incision areas protected from the sun for at least 6 months. Everyone experiences the healing process differently. Every case is unique, so your recuperation will be specific to your calves and the type of liposuction procedure you receive.

Results

One week after your procedure, the doctor may recommend massaging the calves to increase circulation. Be sure to consult Advanced Body Sculpting Institute if you have any questions or concerns following your calf liposuction treatment.

The full effects of your calf liposuction may not appear for a few weeks.

You will experience moderate swelling, but this is natural and normal. Your calves also need some time to process the tumescent fluids that were administered during your procedure. If you opt for Vaser calf liposuction, less fluid is used and recovery times may be shorter. Cases will vary, but after about three to six months, you should start noticing dramatic results!

Complementary Procedures

Liposuction of the calves is a focused, specific procedure designed to rid you of unwanted fat reserves on your lower leg. If the region around your calf also displeases you, then you might want to consider knees and ankles treatment at Advanced Body Sculpting Institute. 

If you want tight, toned legs, then one or more of the above procedures can be a great complement to calf liposuction. Contact our office staff to discuss which techniques are right for you!
