I had calf implants done in 2000. The last few years I noticed that they were becoming very hard.

Asked By:mackyman in Weirton, WV

Within the last year and a half they became rock solid. I am not kidding! If you touch them you would swear there were rocks under my skin. After 17 years I finally found the Plastic Surgeon who did my surgery in another state and I went to see him. His reply was he could not take them out because they were encapsulated. Now they hurt when I touch them or bump my legs together. I am at a loss on what I should do next. Thank You.
