The calf is an inconspicuous part, but if you have a pair of slender and beautiful calves, it is also something that many women envy. Usually, people who have a thick calf belly also have more developed muscles in this area, and therefore, liposuction is relatively difficult. Most of the calf liposuction is done by making a small 0,5 cm opening on the inside of the ankle or popliteal fossa. The operation time is often determined by the amount of fat in the calf, and it usually takes about 1,5 hours in total for both calves.
