Adipose Tissue Transfer in Dynamic Definition Liposculpture Part II. The Lower Limb: Gastrocnemius, Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, and Rectus Femoris Muscles
Abstract:Background: One big challenge of body contouring surgery is the liposculpture of the lower limbs, probably because of the imperative symmetry and the risk of contour irregularities. We are reporting our experience in fat grafting of the thighs and calves for men and women undergoing dynamic definition liposculpture. Methods: We did cadaveric dissections of the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, rectus femoris, and gastrocnemius muscles and identified each of their primary pedicles. We also performed fat grafti… Show more
