Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Follow up: Other angles

You need to also consider the other angles ppl will be seeing your legs from. I am finding (2 years after surgery) I am more self conscious now than I was before. Assuming you got the surgery bc you're skinny, you can really feel the implants hang off your leg when sitting fetal etc. These implants arent exactly sewn onto your existing calf. This can make it especially awkward when intimate with your partner. I was all about cuddling & tangling it up in the sheets etc etc.... but now I am hyper sensitive to anything coming in contact w/ my calf area. This is a surgery you probably are not exactly bragging about to the public. I met my girlfriend now of 2 years a month after my surgery & she still does not know about them. I would say there was a bad calf injury & left me a horrible disfigurement that I fixed if I ever got called out on it. Anyway - below are pics of how obvious they appear if you're ever caught sitting that way. Just another thing you'll become very self conscious of.
I will add updates regularly. The ripple effect this surgery had on my overall life (horrible gut infection, six figure job loss, hyper insecurities, became incredibly anti-social as I had to give up alcohol completely to heal my gut) is too much not to share. People need to read this before moving ahead with the procedure.

Dr. McFate was the best. His staff was as professional as they come. I deeply regret getting this surgery however & will likely reach out to him again about getting these implants removed. My circulation in my legs is not great, and my insecurity wearing shorts has exploded as these implants are pretty obvious. Not really a procedure I am bragging about if you get my drift.
