Answer: Need Workup With the issues that you are describing, you may have underlying venous insufficiency contributing to your lower leg swelling. This should be evaluated by a vascular surgeon prior to pursuing any lower extremity contouring. If and when you decide to pursue this, I would recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon as these procedures can be very tricky, leaving you with permanent swelling and contour irregularities in lieu of the fix to the problem that you were seeking.

Answer: Liposuction Liposuction should work well to remove excess fat around your knees. However, it will not reduce or remove excess swelling in your legs and ankles, and you may find many surgeons will refuse to do liposuction in that area because of your swelling. Keep wearing your compression socks.

Answer: Calf and ankle liposuction Thank you for sharing your photos! Liposculpture as an outpatient procedure under I.V. sedation can reduce the bulge that some people have in their calves and ankles and restore a shapely leg. Unlike other areas of the body the ankles and calves require a certain delicacy which is why I use several innovative forms of liposuction, including SmartLipo, to contour and resculpture the area while providing the most beautiful results with minimal scarring. When looking for a surgeon for something very specific, such as liposuction of the calves and ankles, it is important to find a doctor who routinely performs the procedure and who can show you before and after pictures of patients that they have operated on. These images will not only give you a sense of the surgeon’s skill, but will help you to better visualize the procedure for yourself. I suggest making an appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options in more detail!

Answer: What type of liposuction should I get to address ankles, calfs and knee reduction? I recommend superficial lipo sculpture using small caliber cannula only under local anesthesia with IV sedation. Postop must be off feet fr 72 hours. Fee $6,000.

Answer: Legs and thigh Lipo Based on your pictures, you are a good candidate for VASER LIPO with skin tightening by Renuvion J-Plasma. It would be offered under both local and general anesthesia. The Gold Standard for superior liposuction results requires the use of the advanced technology of ultrasound-assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I perform full body liposuction cases every week. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently resulted in outstanding liposuction outcomes. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of the degree of excess fat by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. If skin redundancy is observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
