There is no one best liposuction procedure for the calves and ankles. In fact, it is my general advice that due to the nerves, and vessels in these areas that you consider avoiding the use of more powerful liposuction techniques sucn as PAL, UAL, or LAL

I would agree that small bore cannula liposuction is beast suited for this area.

Swelling can persist for a prolonged period postobperatively.

Seek a consulation with an experienced surgeon.
