Cruroplasty (calf augmentation)
Cruroplasty is a plastic surgery procedure aimed at augmentation and correction of the shape of the calves. The procedure is performed using silicone implants or fat grafting (lipofilling), helping to create proportional and aesthetically balanced leg contours.
When is cruroplasty indicated?
- In cases of insufficient calf volume due to anatomical features.
- When the shape of the calves is disproportionate relative to the body.
- After trauma or congenital conditions affecting leg symmetry.
- If the patient wishes to accentuate calf definition and volume.
- When physical exercise does not lead to the desired increase in muscle bulk.
How is the procedure performed?
- Surgeon consultation – examination is performed and the correction method is selected.
- Anesthesia – general anesthesia is typically used.
- Shape formation – the surgeon places calf implants or performs fat grafting.
- Tissue fixation and suturing – incisions are made in natural skin folds, making scars minimally visible.
- Rehabilitation – the patient wears compression garments to stabilize the new contour.
Types of cruroplasty
- Calf augmentation with implants – placement of silicone implants to increase volume.
- Lipofilling – transfer of the patient’s own fat from other body areas.
- Combined technique – a combination of implants and fat grafting for a more natural result.
Advantages of cruroplasty in Belarus
- Proportional and aesthetically pleasing results.
- Well-defined calf contour and improved leg silhouette.
- Long-lasting effect that remains stable for many years.
- Small incisions and minimally visible scars.
Recovery after cruroplasty
- Wearing compression garments for 4–6 weeks.
- Limitation of physical activity during the first months.
- Strict adherence to the rehabilitation protocol under surgical supervision.
- Avoidance of prolonged standing and intense load on the legs.
The procedure is performed in modern plastic surgery clinics using advanced surgical techniques, ensuring natural-looking results and a safe recovery process.
