Achieve Slimmer legs with Botox Calf Reduction Treatment
There are many causes of enlarged calves. It could be due to genetics, active lifestyle, excess body fat, regular wearing of high-heel footwear and even improper nutrition. In rare instances, your calves may look bigger than usual because of poor nutrition that may lead to excess salt retention or because of an underlying medical condition. If your calves are enlarged because of excess fat, this can be easily remedied through regular exercise and regulate your dietary intake. Localised excess fat can also be removed through non-surgical fat reduction procedures such as fat freeze, radiofrequency or HIFU treatments.
However, for most women in Singapore, enlarged calves are largely caused by regular wearing of high-heel footwear, causing the calf muscles, or the gastrocnemius – to look big and masculine.
