Why Have Ankle Liposuction?
Patients can have thick ankles for various reasons and of course one can only treat patients where the thickness is due to fat beneath the skin. Ankle liposuction does not treat heavy bones, tendons and muscle. One also needs to differentiate fat ankles from simply swollen ankles due to increased fluid or oedema. Some patients who suffer from lymphoedema, however, can also be helped quite significantly by liposuction – a consultation with a Cadogan Clinic surgeon is recommended to decide the best treatment for you.
