I had the calf and ankle liposuction. I am 5'6 and 110lbs and 43yrs old. I am a thin frame so for me to have fat ankles and calves and skinny thighs looks really bizarre. People would make comments and it made me very self conscious! It was really painful to walk for at least a week post surgery. I am 2 weeks and 3 days post op. Feeling unsure if I see ANY results! I know it's only been 2+ weeks but I expected to see some difference? The doctor showed me that he suction 700 cc's out? I was told to wait 1 month to see any changes and 3 months for final results? I had body sculpting "liposuction" on my ankle area 6 years ago and I saw I much bigger difference then immediately. I felt that more needed to be taken around the ankle and the calf to be more well defined! My Dr. Is board certified and highly skilled but I don't see a change at all! 700 cc's is a lot it equals 23.66 ounces which is almost 2lbs. I did hot yoga last Thursday which was exactly 2 weeks after surgery! I still cant sit on the back of my legs or Neal down. I am feeling very discouraged......keep you posted!

Hey, maybe you should post a before and after pic and see what the RS ladies say. sometimes its harder for us to see results on ourselves becuz we are on the inside looking in so to speak. Perhaps somebody on the outside looking in will be able to tell you if there is a remarkable difference or not! :)

Now that it's been a year since your surgery, are you happy with your results? Thanks for posting!

Remember that 700cc probably includes the fluid injected for the procedure, as well. Just FYI :)
