THE PROCEDURE
What is calf implant surgery?
A calf implant procedure enhances the size, shape, and definition of the lower legs by placing specially designed silicone implants to create fuller, more proportionate calves. It is an effective solution for patients with naturally underdeveloped calves, muscle asymmetry, or those who have been unable to achieve their desired leg contours through exercise alone.
Unlike muscle-building exercises, which may have limited effect due to genetics, calf implants provide a reliable and long-lasting increase in calf volume and definition. The procedure is particularly beneficial for patients with naturally slim calves, muscle imbalance, or volume loss resulting from injury or certain medical conditions, helping to create more balanced lower leg proportions.
At Revitalize in Turkey, every calf implant procedure is tailored to your individual anatomy, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals. Our experienced plastic surgeons use advanced techniques to achieve balanced, natural-looking results while prioritising patient safety, combining expert surgical care with the exceptional value and hospitality that have made Turkey a leading destination for cosmetic surgery.

SUITABILITY
Are you a candidate for calf implant surgery?
A calf implant procedure may be right for you if you:
Have naturally small or underdeveloped calves and would like greater definition and volume
Feel your lower legs are disproportionate to the rest of your body
Have calf asymmetry due to genetics, injury, or a medical condition
Have been unable to achieve your desired calf shape through exercise alone
Are in good general health and a non-smoker, or able to stop before surgery
Have realistic expectations about the results and recovery
Candidacy is always confirmed after a medical review of your medical history, photos, and goals. If calf implants are not the most appropriate option, we’ll honestly recommend an alternative treatment based on your anatomy, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals.

RECOVERY
Calf implant recovery timeline
Days 1–3: Rest with your legs elevated whenever possible to help reduce swelling. Mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising are expected during this period, and your dressings and any drains (if used) will be monitored by our nursing team. Walking is encouraged in short intervals to promote circulation, but strenuous activity should be avoided.
Days 4–7: If drains have been placed, they are usually removed during this period. You’ll become more comfortable walking and carrying out light daily activities while continuing to wear your compression garment. Most patients are able to fly home after 5–7 days, subject to their surgeon’s approval.
Weeks 2–6: Swelling continues to improve, and you can gradually return to normal daily activities. Running, heavy lifting, lower body workouts, and high-impact exercise should be avoided until your surgeon confirms it is safe to resume them.
Months 3–6: The implants settle into their final position, swelling resolves, and the calves achieve their final shape and definition. With a stable weight and healthy lifestyle, your results are long-lasting.
SAFETY FIRST
Risks & safety
A calf implant procedure is a well-established surgery, but like any operation, it carries risks, which we discuss openly during your consultation. These can include swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, fluid collection (seroma), delayed wound healing, and — more rarely — bleeding, infection, blood clots, implant displacement, capsular contracture, or changes in skin sensation.
We minimise these risks by performing a comprehensive pre-operative health assessment, using meticulous surgical techniques, and providing structured aftercare with 24/7 access to our medical team throughout your stay. Your surgeon will explain your individual risk profile in detail and provide personalised guidance to support a safe recovery.

EXCELLENT Based on 80 reviews Posted on Google Vanya BriggsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I chose Revitalise in November 2025 for a deep plane facelift, neck lift, temple brow lift, and facial fat grafting. I was quite apprehensive beforehand, but the moment I met the surgeon and the team, all my worries disappeared. They were absolutely incredible , professional, reassuring, and genuinely caring. We stayed at the Mandarin resort, which was lovely overall, and although there are a few small areas that could be improved, the experience surrounding the surgery itself was exceptional. Professor Ahmets hands gave me complete confidence, and the nurses were attentive, kind, and consistently supportive. Our chaperones were brilliant throughout the stay. We had a few different ones, but Abbie supported my husband and me for most of our time there, and she was truly outstanding. Teona was also wonderful at the resort and Lali The rest of the staff appear to be kind too. We really enjoyed our time in Izmir exploring the bazaar, trying different restaurants, seeing the local sights, and having moments of proper relaxation too. The only area I feel could benefit from improvement is the food at the resort. Because it’s quite a distance from other places to eat, having more substantial meal options would make a big difference, especially for Brits recovering from surgery who often need protein-rich, hearty meals. The soups and porridge were delicious, but sometimes you just need a proper meal with meat and carbs to support recovery. Aside from that, everything else was faultless. My husband also had dental work done, and the dentist was extremely attentive. I’ve already booked to return this year for a breast revision and hairline procedure with Revitalise. Thank you so much for everything especially Teona and Abbi ❤️Posted on Google alison richardsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The whole process from start to finish was very slick, friendly and professional. I was met at the airport by a lovely driver and there was another young lady with me as well. We were dropped to the villa and given some soup which was nice. Next day I had my surgery. Deep plane facelift, neck lift, temporal brow lift and upper eyes. Everything went well and I spent the next 6 nights at the villa recovering. It’s a lovely place to stay and you can even just pick oranges off the trees! They are super delicious. I walked down to the sea one day as well. There are a couple of mini markets you can buy things from. I 100% recommend this clinic to anyone looking to have surgery. It takes all the stress out of it and they even found the flights for me! One lady who was there with me had been there 6 times and when she told me her age I very nearly fell off my chair lol! Will definitely be back possibly for teeth. Thank you all so much and see you again :-)Posted on Google Karen longTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am almost 4 weeks post op, I had a Mummy Makeover. I am delighted with my results. The care received from all was amazing. I will be going back later this year. Thank you all.Posted on Google Arzu AltanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Me and my husband went for dental implants in Izmir and after a couple of months evaluating options we choose Revitalize. It was the best decision! We have just completed the second phase of our treatment last Monday and we couldn´t be happier. It is true, it is not painless as the say, but all in all worthed the disconforth we had, during same (few) steps. For sure, if an acquaintance of ours wish to perform outstanding oral surgery at a very good price, we will sure recomend Revitalize.Posted on Google Gill BrownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just been to Revitalize for my second time. For someone going alone for surgery which is obviously a scary experience I highly recommended this company. They took fantastic care of me the whole way through and everything is super professional. The staff are all very kind and the accommodation is lovely. Since I've come home they have answered my queries right away too. I met some really great other people at the villa and enjoyed getting to know them and our meal times together. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Revitalize if you are considering it 😊Posted on Google Paula Deveney-SwanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an extended Tummy Tuck in February 2024. The service was outstanding. On arriving the driver was waiting for me to take me to the villa. The villa is just amazing, helpful friendly and experienced staff on call 24/7 The surgeon was friendly and informative The hospital was spotless, I stayed for 1 night before going back to the villa to recover for a further 8 nights The room at the villa had everything I needed and pull cords should help have been needed, thankfully it wasn’t. The grounds and pool were perfect, unfortunately I could only look at the pool due to surgery. February 2025 and I’m back, this time for breast reduction and uplift. Again can’t find fault in anything. Staff always on hand to help, hospital and villa spotless. What next ……Posted on Google Sonia BramleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Unparalleled service and care provided. Their unique set up of providing pre- and post-operative support is incredible. You have 24/7 on site support as well as residing with patients undergoing similar procedures. Their English speaking surgeons really listen and treat you as individuals rather than a conveyor belt of procedures. The camaraderie that you build at the villa is unmatchable. I cannot recommend this company highly enough.

ANSWERS
Frequently asked questions
What are calf implants?
Calf implants are specially designed silicone implants placed over the calf muscles to enhance the size, shape, and definition of the lower legs. They provide a long-lasting solution for patients seeking fuller, more proportionate calves.
Who is a good candidate for calf implants?
Calf implants are suitable for healthy adults with naturally slim or underdeveloped calves, calf asymmetry, or those who have been unable to achieve their desired leg shape through exercise alone.
Will the implants look and feel natural?
Yes. Modern calf implants are made from soft, durable silicone and are carefully selected to suit your anatomy. Once healed, they are designed to provide a natural-looking contour and are generally not noticeable during normal daily activities.
Will I have visible scars?
The incision is typically placed in the natural crease behind the knee, where the resulting scar is usually well concealed and fades gradually over time.
How long is the recovery?
Most patients are able to fly home after 5–7 days, subject to their surgeon's approval. Walking is encouraged soon after surgery, but strenuous exercise, running, and heavy lower body workouts should be avoided for around 4–6 weeks.
Are calf implant results permanent?
Yes. Calf implants are designed to provide long-lasting enhancement and do not require routine replacement. As with any implant, they should be monitored over time, and replacement is only necessary if a complication develops or your aesthetic goals change.
Can calf implants be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Calf implants are often combined with other body contouring procedures, such as liposuction, thigh surgery, or other cosmetic treatments, to create more balanced overall body proportions. Your surgeon will advise whether combining procedures is appropriate for you.
