Cosmetic surgery such as calf augmentation is very affordable in the Philippines. Lower overhead costs and professional fees makes it possible for U.S.- trained plastic & reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Carlos Lasa, Jr. to perform these surgeries at a fraction of the cost of the same procedures in the United States, U.K. and other countries, without sacrificing quality of care.
The Philippines’ medical services can rival the best in the world. Most Filipino doctors speak English fluently, ensuring the good communication between surgeon and patient that is essential during consultation. There are qualified and well-trained plastic surgeons who charge relatively affordable fees, especially if they practice in Asian countries like the Philippines, where cost of living expenses are low and if they can keep overhead costs low by having modest outpatient surgery clinics. However, be careful if the cosmetic surgery provider you’re considering charges much lower than others in the same country. Although price is definitely a factor when considering elective surgery, patients seeking quality medical care at very affordable prices should know that choosing the right surgeon is the single most important decision they will make. For best results for your calf augmentation surgery, choose an authentic plastic surgeon who has had formal training in plastic and reconstructive surgery and experience in this particular procedure.
Procedure
Calf augmentation is a procedure for patients who want to improve the shape of their legs, increase the size of the calves, enhance the muscle and add definition. Many men pursue calf augmentation to bulk up the appearance of the calf muscles, while women usually want to enhance the curves in the lower leg. Generally, calf augmentation patients are looking for lower legs that are in better balance when compared to the rest of the body, especially the thighs. This procedure is usually done on as an outpatient procedure, taking about an hour to perform. Implants are inserted through a tiny incision behind the knee.
