How it works

Plan the line

Thigh, knee, calf and ankle are marked as one continuous contour.

Dry-field removal

A tourniquet system keeps the field bloodless; fine cannulas work along the limb.

Taper the ankle

Micro-cannulas restore the narrowing above the foot that makes a leg look long.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Not answered here? Message us and a coordinator will reply within one working day.

How much can be removed?

As much as anatomy safely allows in one session — the dry technique removes the usual fluid and blood-loss limits.

Will the skin sag?

Good skin recoils. Where laxity is expected we plan a spiral leg lift.

Is this lipoedema surgery?

The technique is the same; the diagnosis and planning differ. If you have lipoedema, that comes first.

Is this the right procedure for you?

Prof. Karacalar will tell you honestly — including if the answer is no surgery at all.
