Treatment for Skinny Ankles? (photo)

Fat grafting to the ankles is not commonly performed, but is likely the only way to add some fullness to the area. The problem is that there is a limited space to graft fat to in the ankles. The results after one session will be moderate in nature. Over-grafting can lead to higher risk complications such as blood clots and infection in the ankle areas. If you consider this procedure, expect to need multiple sessions and that could be costly.  The consideration ought to be whether it is worthwhile doing anything at all, given the costs, risks and moderate nature of the results.

While I have transferred fat to almost every place, the ankles may not be a great place for transfer.  This is probably the best way to enlarge that area, but it is not commonly performed.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
