Has anyone experienced calf swelling 5-6 weeks after thighplasty? I am 6 weeks out and my calfskin are extremely swollen, not my ankles or feet just calfs.

I'm sorry your having swelling and I have not had the surgery yet. I'm schedule to have my thigh lift in September of this year. I will have to have a cut on my inner thigh and then in the growing areas.

How was your cut perform...?

Thanks,
Lisha

I had the same problem....Of course finding time to prop up your feet may or maynot be possible. I purchased compression socks from the drugstore and ut them on under my compression garmet, it seemed to help.

I may have had a few extra potholes along the way, but the journey has been good!

My calfs & ankles swelled badly for months after my thighs. One calf was noticabley bigger by the end of the day. Eventually went away.
