Gastrocnemius Resection<\/strong><\/p>\n

If skin quality is good, then we only need to make a 5cm incision across the hollow of the knee and an additional incision, approx. 2,5cm long, running vertical from the original incision in the middle of the lower leg (see image). The gastrocnemius muscle can be mobilized without a problem using these two openings.<\/p>\n

Botulinum toxin<\/strong><\/p>\n

We should also mention the\u00a0Botox (Botulinum toxin A)\u00a0calf reduction method. Botox is a neurotoxin which causes my paresis (slight muscular paralysis). Botulinum toxin is currently a standard treatment for mimetic wrinkles. It also has other uses, however \u2013 including calf reduction.<\/p>\n

Selective Neurectomy<\/strong><\/p>\n

A\u00a0selective neurectomy\u00a0(denervation, nerve transection) is the separation of the nerve trunk which innervates the gastrocnemius muscle. If your calf consists mainly of fat then a calf liposuction will be the solution. After the neurectomy, the muscle atrophies, reducing the muscle\u2019s volume. This procedure is a partial muscle reduction.<\/p>\n

Radio frequency<\/strong><\/p>\n

Radio frequency calf reduction\u00a0refers to obliteration of the muscle through several small skin punctures using electricity and heat. The procedure can be performed to varying degrees of intensity, but usually requires general anesthetic.<\/p>\n

Liposuction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calf surgery using Liposuction\u00a0is an excellent treatment option in the event that the increase in size is caused by accumulation of fatty tissue.<\/p>\n

Abstaining from exercise<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calf reduction can be achieved by abstaining from exercise.\u00a0<\/strong>If the calves are perceived as too large due to intense physical activity, the enlargement can be reduced by avoiding certain exercises and types of training. Exercises which build up calf muscle should be avoided, in particular standing on your toes with and without weights, climbing stairs, hiking, and sprinting.<\/p>\n
