Excess skin in calves?
Today at yoga, thanks to all the mirrors in the studio, I noticed that I've got the beginnings of a lot of excess skin hanging around my calves. Which got me thinking that I've never seen anyone mention having plastic surgery on their lower legs, just on their thighs. Are calves an area that we might need plastics for? Or is the skin there more likely to tighten up with time?

So far my lower arms seem to be okay ;) And my feet!

In ALL of my plastics research I have only ONE time seen someone that had excess skin on the calves removed. I really don't think it's a common surgery that probably a lot of surgeon's won't do? I'm just guessing though. I have the same excess skin issue on my calves and I just assume it's here to stay.... *sigh*

Thanks, Nikke! Did you ask Dr. Capella about it at all or did it not come up?
(You're looking amazing(er), by the way!!)
