Can steroids be used in the treatment of skinny ankles and legs?

Question

my calf muscle( gastrocnemius) is fine its from soleus down that's like none existent would regional steroid injections help, systemic steroids would make me a monster and still do nothing for my legs (from experience)

Rodney A. Green, MD · Answer

The lower leg areas are challenge with respect to augmentation. Implants are limited to the upper part of the calves. What I have found useful for the lower part of the leg is fat grafting. Fat is harvested with liposuction and prepared for injection in the usual fashion. This can add volume to the legs as it can anywhere else. The problem is that the space is relatively limited and in order to gain sufficient volume the procedure may need to be repeated several times.I think this is your best option for adding volume to the lower third of the legs.
