Calf augmentation in Beverly Hills & Pasadena with Dr. Leif Rogers is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is performed to enhance the size and shape of the calves.

What Is Calf Augmentation?

Calf augmentation techniques were originally developed to restore leg contour for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as polio and club foot, who tended to have contracted calf muscles. Calf Augmentation techniques include surgical implants as well as fat grafting to the calf. Both procedures can produce a comfortable, natural-looking, and visually pleasing result. Implants are made of FDA-approved silicone and come in various shapes and sizes to suit the body type of the patient. Leif Rogers, MD proudly serves patients from Pasadena, Beverly Hills, and anywhere else in the world.

The Calf Augmentation Procedure

Calf augmentation can be performed under different types of anesthesia, with the two main types being general anesthesia and local anesthesia. During the lead-up to your procedure, Dr. Rogers will work with you to decide which type of anesthesia is right for you before explaining the details of your procedure to you so you know exactly what to expect.

Generally, the surgery takes around one to two hours to complete, with the exact length of the procedure varying according to the specifics of your treatment plan. During the surgery, Dr. Rogers will make incisions according to your treatment plan before inserting the implants that will be used to create your exciting calf augmentation results.

Fat Transfer Calf Augmentation

Fat transfer calf augmentation enables Dr. Rogers to enhance your calves without the use of artificial implants. This process starts with liposuction, which will be used to remove excess fat from a donor area that has plenty to spare (typically the back, hips, or stomach). Once this donor fat has been purified and prepared, it will be injected into your calves, where it will enhance their shape and definition. Beyond the very small incisions that will be used for the liposuction part of the procedure, this process is far more minimally invasive and doesn’t involve any significant post-surgical scarring.

Your Recovery Process

After your calf augmentation, you’ll be able to return home to begin your recovery process, as the surgery is an outpatient procedure. You’ll need a friend to drive you home, as you won’t be able to drive while your anesthesia is in the process of wearing off.

After surgery, you can expect a recovery period of several weeks to a few months. Most patients can return to work and normal daily activities within two to four weeks but should avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise for at least four to six weeks.
