What Are My Options For Calf Reduction? Costs?

Thank you for your question.  In many cases of thicker lower legs, there is excessive adipose (fatty) tissue that can be carefully liposuctioned.  Make sure you visit a board-certified plastic surgeon.  In other parts of the world (like Korea), muscle excision and/or cutting off nerve branches to the calf muscles are done.  I don't have experience with those procedures but I would reserve those for extreme cases only, and with the right professionals.  I've had great results with liposuction alone in cases where there was a true excessive fatty layer.  Cost would be between 5200 and 6500$ (all included except taxes).  Best of luck,  Dr. Marc DuPere, Toronto Plastic Surgeon, Board-Certified.

The most common and effective procedure for calf reduction is partial neurotomy - essentially clipping part of the nerve branches to the calf muscle causing it to atrophy (shrink some) over the ensuing 6-12 months.  Like any procedure it is highly recommended to seek consultation only from a board certified plastic surgeon specializing in this type of procedure.  Hope this helps...RAS 

The options for calf reduction depends on the issues that are contributing to your big calves.  You may have excessive fat, hypertrophic muscles, or a combination of both.  
Excess fat can be addressed with liposuction of the calves and ankle areas.  Because the legs are a dependent part of your body, patients usually have prolonged swelling.  However, when the swelling resolves, you can have a dramatic improvement.  
Hypertrophic calf muscles can be addressed in several ways.  There are various techniques including selective neurectomy, direct muscle excision, and radiofrequency ablation of the nerves.  Most patients can be efffectively treated with radiofrequency ablation.  This technique does not leave a surgical scar and is effective in reducing the muscle bulk.  
The prices will vary depending on the type of surgery or combination of surgery required and area in which you're seeking treatment.  

Thank you for your question. Prices will vary depending on the srugeon, where you live or are having the procedure, and the size of your eduction. I hope this helps!
