Sharing my experience with calf Botox injections

Sharing information about calf Botox effects, cases where it should not be administered, and precautions.

Optimal effects appear after two months, as it contracts the calf muscles, making the calves slimmer and giving a slender appearance.

Varicose veins, legs that swell easily, and legs with a lot of fat are not suitable, and it is better not to engage in activities like running or hiking for 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure.

I received calf Botox injections in my early 30s.

There was a special event, but I couldn't wear a skirt because my calf muscle was bulging out and looked unsightly.

After much 고민, I experienced the event about three months ago, and I was very satisfied.

My ankles are thin, but my calves are bulging out and very thick.

I think it's because I really enjoy walking and do a lot of leg-intensive exercises. No matter how much I try to loosen the calf lumps with glass bottles or other methods, the lumps in my calves would stay, but after this procedure, my calves became slimmer.

In the past, they used to perform amputations to reduce calf size, but just thinking about surgery is frightening. It's a complicated procedure with severe side effects.

Compared to that, calf Botox seems simple and has fewer side effects, so I think it's good~

Cases where calf Botox should not be administered

✅ When there is more fat than muscle in the calves

If you have a lot of fat from your ankle to your calf and it's not muscle but fat, this injection will not be effective.

In such cases, dieting or treatments like fat dissolving injections or liposuction are more appropriate.

✅ If you have varicose veins

If you have varicose veins, blood circulation in the calves may be poor, and receiving an injection that contracts the calf muscles could worsen the varicose veins.

✅ When legs frequently swell

The calves play a role in sending blood back to the heart, and people whose legs frequently swell have weakened this function.

You should not receive this injection here because it may cause your legs to swell more.

👍 I didn't have any of the above issues, and judging by the thin ankles, there isn't much fat in the legs, and seeing the calves that are firm, I was told it's a muscular type and that Botox would be really effective.

If you have a style like mine, it will be very effective.

Sharing my experience with calf Botox injections

Just like how squid shrinks and becomes smaller when grilled.

If you receive this injection in your large calf muscle, the muscle contracts and the bulging calf muscle disappears, making your legs look slimmer.

I tried it myself, and it was really amazing.

Right side is a behind-the-scenes shot: roughly this kind of look.

The definite effect will be seen in about two months.

It's not that the effects of Botox immediately decrease right after the injection; it takes some time for the muscles to contract.

It's expected to take about two months, so it's good to check the dates and prepare accordingly.

If you want to confidently go out in summer, it would be good to get it done around spring~

Precautions after receiving calf Botox injections

After receiving the injection, you may experience bruising, swelling, or a dull ache.

If you use your ankles a lot while walking, the muscles around the ankles may become thicker. In such cases, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist for consultation.

It is recommended to avoid running, hiking, or other activities that heavily use the legs for about 1 to 2 weeks immediately after the procedure.

Right after the procedure, it felt like I had been hit there, and I was stiff and had difficulty walking.

I couldn't take it out anywhere because I had a bruise.

I often gave gentle massages.

About a week later, when I climbed the stairs, I had difficulty putting strength in my legs and experienced pain, so I barely managed to go up while holding onto the railing.

[Are the effects gradually re-treated every six months?]

The effects of calf Botox do not appear immediately after the injection; instead, they gradually become noticeable over 1 to 2 months, resulting in smaller calves.

In the first month, my calves, which were firm, started to feel a bit softer, and after about two months, even when I tiptoed, I couldn't feel any lumps, and a smooth calf line was formed~

The effects usually last about six months, and if a re-treatment is performed after six months without using the calf muscles much, the duration of the effect from the second time onward can gradually become longer.

I used to get injections during events, but I haven't since then, although I occasionally think about it.

I think I felt a great sense of satisfaction myself~

Lately, I love exercising so much that there's no chance for my calves to shrink.

If there is a special event, I would like to experience it.

I have shared information about the calf botox procedure, which I am highly satisfied with.
