Tags: calves, ankles, doctor referral

I carry most of my weight in my buttocks, thighs, and (unfortunately) calves. I am overweight (I weigh 178) but have lost about 45 pounds in the past year. (I was about 155 in August 2009 when I became pregnant; I gained an enormous amount of weight while pregnant and it has been slow to come off.) Even when around 155 though I still have disproportionately big legs. I would be interested in having my butt/thighs liposuctioned, too, but my calves are what really make me feel self-conscious.

Liposuction of Calves/ankle in the Chicago Area

The ASPS website is a good starting point for a list of qualified surgeons. Dr. Jay Pensler and Dr. John Cook are two possibilities. Consult with 2 - 3 surgeons in your area to find the one that best meets your needs.

Liposuction of calves

Although I am not sure how much experience he has with liposuction of the calves and ankles, Dr. Edward Lack, in Chicago, has been doing liposuction for many years. You may also want to search the American Society for Plastic Surgery's website
