For those who want to have thick and defined legs quickly, but do not have time to invest in physical exercises, a good option is plastic surgery, which can be done after age 18, and leaves the legs shapely and bulky in little time.
The most common surgeries done to thicken the legs are:
- Silicone Implant in the Thighs : This is a great way to give volume to the legs of people who complain about thin, arched or even flaccid legs, which is common after weight loss. The surgery is performed with peri-dural anesthesia, lasts about 2 hours, and the prosthesis is inserted in a cut of about 4 cm in the groin area, placed under the muscle to give a more natural and firm appearance.
- Lipoenxertia : a procedure that places the fat of the liposuction from the other part of the body, such as the belly, on the thighs, and can thicken up to 2 cm in diameter of the legs, made with peri-dural anesthesia. This procedure can be done in the same surgery as liposuction and is called liposculpture.
These procedures can also be done on the calves and buttocks, and are a good option for those who want to have a more proportionate appearance of the legs, but can not thicken these places with just exercises. Learn how gluteoplasty is done to enlarge the butt.
Definitive results are observed after 6 months, when there are no bumps and healing is complete.
Postoperative recovery
The recovery of these procedures is quick, requiring only 1 day of hospitalization, being recommended the use of a compressor mesh and cold water compresses to help in the recovery. It is advised not to make efforts or to take weight for 10 days, and physical activity is released after 1 to 2 months.
Analgesics and anti-inflammatories, such as dipyrone, ibuprofen or ketoprofen, can be used to reduce pain, which is more intense in the first 2 days.
The complications of these surgeries are not common, but infection, accumulation of blood or fluid, irregular healing, thrombosis of the leg or, in the case of a prosthesis, may occur.
