leg implants

My legs are too thin and since my hips are wide that makes my legs look even thinner.  Are there any leg inplants? (just like breast implants)

Yes, there are calf implants that you can consider, as well as a calf aug., which is when they take fat from other body parts and inject them in your legs.  This procedure will heal you much quicker than the implants.

I too would like to get this procedure... All my life, I had to hear that I had skinny legs and I too have larger thighs that do not help contour my body.  To top things off, I have large breast that are totally too big for my frame.  Uh, just have issues.  I wish I can get the procedure, but the finances does not support my desperate needs.  Let's just say, that I hate the spring and summer time...

Sorry to bring you down, but I hope the info. was helpful.

Calf implants to improve leg contour are a relatively rare, but well recognized procedure.  These implants are placed via small incisions behind the knees.  Often two implants are placed behind each lower leg to mimic the fullness of the gastroc muscles.
