Plastic Surgery of the Limbs – SURGERY
OF THE LEGS
We have patients that wish to thicken the legs and those that wish to have them
slimmed down.
Increase of the leg contour is a one session procedure with specific silicone
implants for that area, placed through a small incision into the posterior fold
between leg and thigh.
The immediate results are quite good and interesting. However, being a segment
of great mobility, the silicone may dislodge with time and need removal or repositioning.
This operation is indicated for patients with atrophy of one of
the legs and who wish to balance their appearance.
Regarding leg tapering, the only resource is liposculpture which
should not be conducted over the entire limb, but only in specific
and small areas, such as the ankles.
