Especially for estet-portal.com, a plastic surgeon from Latvia, Doctor of Medical Sciences, President of the Latvian Association of Plastic Surgeons, member of ASAPS, IPRAS, ESLAS Janis Gilis told why operations to correct the shape of the buttocks and lower legs are so in demand today.

How often do patients come to you to correct the shape of the buttocks and lower legs?

At one time, this was an extremely rare occurrence, since I am from Latvia, where it is more often cold than warm, and women in our area rarely asked such questions. But now these operations are becoming more and more popular not only in South America and Florida, but also in Latvia, because more and more women want their body to be as beautiful as possible.

What do you think is the reason for such popularity of these operations?

I think it has to do with the way you treat your body. Now people are more open about this, they travel more around the world, and they see that the beauty of the body can bring a lot of joy.

What methods do you prefer to use to correct the shape of the buttocks and lower legs?

There are two methods for correcting the shape of the buttocks: the first – these are implants that, fortunately or unfortunately, are becoming less and less popular every year.

More and more popular today are methods that involve the use of their "gold", which every woman has.

That is, somewhere there is excess fat, and women are very pleased and joyful that we take it from there and use it as our own material to correct those places where it is lacking.

What is the reason for women's interest in leg correction surgery? Is this a rare operation?

This is not such a rare operation, there are many women who are worried about their shape of the legs. They are embarrassed to wear dresses, and it is very important that their legs are beautiful. That is why this operation is quite widespread.

What are the key features of the calf correction surgery that the surgeon should keep in mind in order to get the best result?

It is necessary to choose the right implant, the right size, or with the help of fat to ensure, for aesthetic reasons, the most correct location. The operation must be done as safely as possible, and if the surgeon has placed the implant, it must be kept in place, not squeezing the surrounding tissues, so that this does not lead to unpleasant complications, and so that we, in the end, achieve a beautiful result.

Can the lower legs also be corrected using the patient's own fat?

In each case, we look at what will give us more joy and a better result, with fewer risk factors.
