The curvature of the legs can be true and false. Plastic surgeries aim to correct the false curvature, in particular the false curvature of the shins. False curvature of the shins can be caused by weak development of the inner part of the calf muscle (which is practically irreparable by physical exercise), or in some cases, the emergence of asymmetry in the volume of the calf muscles as a result of a previous limb injury. Consulting a specialist who deals with the correction of shin curvature determines the further action plan.
False curvature of the shins is corrected by installing silicone implants. Silicone implants,
used to augment the shins,
have a lifetime warranty,
are resistant to external damage and do not require replacement,
and in terms of density and other physical properties, they are indistinguishable from muscle tissues.

- Poorly developed internal part of the calf muscles
- Skinny shins
- Asymmetry of the calf muscles
[/accor_block][accor_block title="CRUROPLASTY OPERATION TECHNIQUE"]During the operation to correct leg curvature, a small incision is made on the back in the natural fold of the popliteal fossa, which subsequently makes it virtually invisible. According to the markings, a cavity is formed over the medial part of the calf muscle, where an individually selected implant is placed. The scar after the cosmetic suture is hidden in the natural skin fold under the knee and is virtually unnoticeable.
[/accor_block][accor_block title="ANESTHESIA DURING CRUROPLASTY"] General anesthesia: intravenous or endotracheal anesthesia [/accor_block][accor_block title="DURATION OF THE OPERATION"] Duration of the operation on both calves – 20-30 min. [/accor_block][accor_block title="HOSPITAL STAY"] It is recommended to stay in the hospital for 24 hours after calf plastic surgery [/accor_block][accor_block title="POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD AND REHABILITATION"] Pain persists for 2-3 days.
To everyday life with some restrictions can begin in 3-5 days. Walking (on tiptoes) is recommended for up to a month, as there is tension in the calf tissues due to increased volume and their sufficient physiological strain. Final physical load is recommended after 4 weeks. We recommend starting sports and active physical activities no earlier than 3 months after the surgery.
The surgeon's qualifications and the clinic's level of equipment allow minimizing potential risks. Nevertheless, you need to be aware of possible complications, which you can learn about in the informed consent for the surgery. [/accor_block][/accordion]
