A calf Implant is a cosmetic surgery procedure used to bulk up the appearance of calves for a more toned or muscular appearance. Men often choose this procedure to enhance their calves for a more masculine look. Women often choose a calf augmentation with implants to create more aesthetic and attractive legs as well as to sculpt calves so they look more harmonious with the thighs and other areas of the legs.

Getting calf implants may benefit anyone who wants to enhance or reshape their calves’ appearance. There can be many different reasons behind this desire for a calf implant patient. For example, body builders often plateau while trying to add more mass to their calves. To achieve more toned, fuller calves, calf implants can be a great option.
Additionally, people with congenital defects or damage from illness or diseases, such as polio, may want to add mass and reshape their calves to restore them back to their natural look. Calf implants can enhance a person’s self-esteem, beef up skinny legs, or improve the appearance of a muscular imbalance.
Every calf implant surgery begins with a thorough consultation to assess your goals and take measurements to select the correct implant size. After Dr. Edouard Coeugniet designs your treatment plan, he will order your implants and schedule your surgery.
The results of calf augmentation with implants are considered long-lasting. Implants are designed to be durable and are expected to maintain their shape for many years.
Following calf augmentation surgery, patients are advised to limit their physical activity to walking. To maximize the speed of recovery, it may be recommended to engage in body weight calf raises even on the first postoperative day. This early mobility, while uncomfortable, can speed up the overall recovery process. While some discomfort, bruising, and swelling are normal, these symptoms can be managed with prescribed medication. It’s essential to avoid any strenuous exercise or activities such as running or weightlifting for approximately six weeks post-surgery to facilitate proper healing.
Calf augmentation is generally safe when performed by an experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Edouard Coeugniet. However, like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications, including infection, implant shifting, or peri-implant fluid formation (seroma). Dr. Edouard Coeugniet will discuss these risks with you during the consultation and take every precaution to ensure a safe and successful outcome.
