I struggled to find good reviews for this procedure since it isn’t very common. So I hope this helps someone else. Despite aggressive working out 5 days a week, I have never been able to reduce the fat I hold in my lower legs. For reference I am 5’6” 130lbs 39 years old. I’m currently exactly...
I have very thick calf since my teen as I did a lot of sport. I didn't like the look of my calves and I always wish for slimmer legs. I was told by several doctors that they could not do anything about it as it is all muscle. I keep doing my research to find other options to slim my calves. I...
I scheduled the surgery as soon as I found out about Dr. Liu’s practice. I always hated my calves and wanted to slim them down, however after 9 marathons and one Ironman, they only grew bigger and bulkier, that was when I knew I needed a surgical option. I found Dr. Liu through google and then r...
I had calf reduction surgery in 2015 with excellent results with Dr Lui. They were reduced two inches. They were still a little bit bigger than I wanted- so I went ahead and got radio frequency. It has only been two weeks and they are down another .5 inches. I also got Lipo done on my stomach,...

I have always had cankles from at my skinniest to at my thicc-est. I had a wonderful experience - Dr. Grossman took the time to talk to me personally, understand my needs, and be so supportive. From consultation to operation was an amazingly fast turnaround. The staff were lovely,...
I debated writing this review for a long time but after almost 7 months I feel compelled now that some significant time has passed and I have encountered nothing but a slew of complications. My first complaint is that I was woken up and told i needed to leave rather abruptly. I was a morning...
My calves and ankles have been a big issue all of my life. I've tried everything I could to make them look better, slimmer or at least in some shape but it wasn't really working. I'm small in the size , 162 cm in height and 56 kg in weight but have always felt that lower part of my body doesn't...
I had calf resection surgery and RF surgery on May 31,2019 at Avant Plastic Surgery Center in Los Angeles, CA. Honestly, so far this has been the best decision in my life. Today is almost 3 weeks after the surgery and I have already see beautiful results. My results: calves before surgery - 42...
