Knee & Calf (“Cankle”) Liposuction with Gentle Sculpt™
Goodbye, Cankles—Hello, Defined Legs
Stubborn fat around the knees, calves, and ankles—often called “cankles” when the calf appears to blend straight into the foot—can make even the fittest person feel self-conscious in shorts, dresses, or swimwear. Genetics, hormonal shifts, and fluid retention can all contribute, and no amount of calf-raises or cardio will spot-reduce these pockets.
Gentle Sculpt™ is our proprietary awake micro-liposuction technique that uses 1.5–2 mm cannulas to precisely remove fat and define the natural taper from knee to ankle. By working through pen-tip entry points, we sculpt smooth, athletic contours with minimal bruising and virtually invisible scars.
Why Choose Gentle Sculpt™ for Cankles & Knees?
| Advantage | What It Means for You |
| Micro-cannulas | Less tissue trauma, reduced swelling, and smoother blending between calf and ankle. |
| 360-degree | Inner knee, outer knee pad, calf bulge, and ankle treated in one session for a seamless result. |
| Awake tumescent anesthesia | Stay comfortable, avoid general-anesthesia risks, and stand briefly so we can assess symmetry in real time. |
| Rapid recovery | Walk in and out the same day; most return to desk work in 48 hours and light workouts in a week. |
| Skin-tightening add-ons | Combine with J-Plasma® Renuvion for mild laxity or cellulite treatments for an ultra-smooth finish. |
Ideal Candidates
- Visible fullness around the knees, calves, or ankles despite a healthy weight
- Good skin elasticity (mild laxity can often be tightened intra-op)
- Realistic expectations and a commitment to maintaining results with balanced nutrition and exercise
Not sure? Our FREE consultation includes 3-D imaging and candid photo review to confirm whether Gentle Sculpt™ can address your cankles or if another option suits you better.
What to Expect on Procedure Day
- Precision marking while you stand, highlighting knee pads, calf bulges, and ankle thickness.
- Local anesthetic infusion—you’ll feel pressure, not pain.
- Micro-cannula sculpting in a 360-degree pattern to blend knee, calf, and ankle for a natural taper.
- Compression garment fitted before you walk out—no drains, no stitches.
Average procedure time: 60–90 minutes.
Recovery & Results Timeline
| Day 1–2 | Mild soreness; over-the-counter pain relief suffices for most. |
| Day 3–7 | Light bruising peaks, then fades; resume desk work and gentle walks. |
| Week 2 | Swelling diminishes; legs feel lighter under clothing. |
| Month 1 | Majority of swelling gone; visible ankle definition when standing. |
| Month 6–9 | Final contour revealed—smooth calf taper and sculpted knees. |
