Preparing for the surgery
First you should find a board certified plastic surgeon to perform the procedure. Pre-surgery preparation starts with your initial consultation, where you can determine the size and shape of the implants. Making sure you cease smoking, taking specific medications, and follow any instructions and advice offered by your surgeon. As before almost any other cosmetic surgeries, couples of tests and pre-examinations are necessary to make.
It is also essential to make post surgery arrangements, organizing accommodation, and transport to and from the clinic well in advance.
BeautyHungary is happy to do all this for you for free of charge.
How is calf augmentation performed?
Calf augmentation usually requires about 45 minutes for the plastic surgeon to perform. The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. Patients lie on their stomach during the operation.
First the surgeon makes an incision where the natural crease is on the back of the knees. Then the right sized and shaped calf implants are inserted into their place, above the muscle. Your surgeon carefully examines to make sure the legs are symmetrical and look natural. If the results are pleasing he closes up the incision with stitches.
Recovery after the surgery
One overnight is required to stay at Clinic under medical supervision. You must stay in Hungary until you check up, which will be on the 7th day after your operation. You will feel a little pain and discomfort after the operation, but this pain can be relieved by medication prescribed by the surgeon.
