Calf Augmentation Procedure
This procedure offers a solution for those people that have underdeveloped calves or wish to augment them. The idea is to shape and size the calves by surgical insertion of implants. The implants are made of soft silicon and they come in different shapes and sizes. Before the operation your legs will be measured to select a proper implant for your needs. There is an alternative to implants. Calf augmentation can also be performed by liposuction of fat from other body parts and injecting it into the calves. This method is not suitable for people with no extra fat to be removed. Another problem is fat absorption that eventually occurs, sometimes creating not symmetric calves. Men and women can benefit from this procedure. Men usually want to increase the muscle bulk, giving them more masculine look and women wish to get more symmetrical appearance of their legs. This procedure also may help to correct some congenital defects, those include polio, spina bifida and clubfoot, all this conditions may be associated with undeveloped calves.
This procedure can be done with local or general anesthesia, and it usually lasts for an hour. During the operation the patient is laying on their back. A cut is made in the concavity behind the knee, then the skin is gently separated and a space is created. The implant is inserted above the muscles. After one leg is done the doctor performs the same on the other one. After the symmetry is confirmed the surgeon closes the cuts with stitches.
Every operation has its ricks. This one includes bleeding, infection and sometimes implants shrinkage and asymmetry.
After the surgery you may feel some degree of pain. Your doctor'll subscribe you for painkillers. At the first two days you'll be asked to raise your legs whenever you are sitting, this to reduce swelling. Afterwards, the bandages are removed and you are encouraged to walk more intensively to train your calve muscles. For about two weeks you'll fell like you're calves is been through excessive workout. Swelling and bruising also may appear, they are only temporary and will improve with time. You'll be able to go back to work after 7-10 days. You'll get detailed instructions from you're surgeon regarding the activities you should avoid, for example long walking, weight lifting and running. Usually, most of the patients are able to return to their daily activities after 4-6 weeks.

Plastic Surgery News...
- The authors of this article discuss whether monitoring initial response to treatment is always helpful in the clinical management of patients. They have developed a framework for deciding whether surrogate outcomes should be used to monitor initial response to treatment in chronic disease. To develop the framework, the authors looked at two scenarios:
- Should change in blood pressure be monitored after addition of a diuretic to an angiotensin II receptor blocker in adults with essential hypertension?
- Should change in cholesterol be monitored after giving patients with ischaemic heart disease a statin?
The following topics are covered in the article:
• Rationale and pitfalls of monitoring initial response
• Estimating variability in treatment effects between individuals from placebo controlled randomised trials
• Blood pressure and lipid lowering
• A framework for choosing whether to monitor initial response to a new drug
• What to do next
The main summary points (taken directly from the article) are provided below:
o Clinicians routinely monitor individual patients after they start a new treatment; sometimes this may be unnecessary and even potentially harmful
o Monitoring is unlikely to be of value when there is no evidence of variation in the response to treatment or when there is a high probability that therapeutic targets will be met
o Data from placebo controlled randomised trials can be used to decide on the need for monitoring initial response in different clinical scenarios
o Updating the CONSORT statement to include the detailed reporting of outcome variability will allow clinicians to make informed decisions on the need to monitor initial response to treatment
