Excess/saggy skin on calves. Is there a procedure to remove this excess skin?

Question

Hello! Several decades ago, I lost 150 pounds through healthy eating and exercise. I have kept the weight off ever since and only had surgeries to remove excess skin. I am now 50 years old, in great condition, but b/c of age and having a thigh lift, I have excess skin on my calves....The skin is very noticeable when I walk and especially when I raise my legs. Is there a procedure to remove this excess skin ? TIA!
