Calf augmentation surgery using implants is a well-liked choice for those looking to boost the size and shape of their calf muscles. This cosmetic treatment is all about giving your calves a fuller, more natural appearance while making sure they’re in balance with the rest of your lower body.
In terms of what’s actually used, you have two main choices: standard, ready-to-use implants or tailor-made ones designed just for you. Either way, the aim is to deliver results that look natural and help to even out your body’s proportions and symmetry.
Thinking about the cost? This guide will give you an idea of how much you can expect to pay for calf implants. We’ll break down what’s included in the overall price and help you decide if this is the right investment for achieving the look you want.
Here at Centre for Surgery, our team of body shaping surgeons are among a select few in the UK who focus specifically on calf enhancement. Thanks to our specialised training in reconstructing the lower limbs, we have the know-how and the skill to create a treatment plan that’s individually tailored to meet your personal beauty goals.
What is Calf Implant Surgery?
Calf implant surgery, also known as calf augmentation, is a cosmetic procedure that involves the insertion of silicone implants into the calf muscles to increase their size and shape. The procedure is typically performed on individuals who have underdeveloped or asymmetrical calf muscles or who have lost muscle mass due to injury or illness. The surgery is usually done under general anaesthesia and can take several hours. Recovery time can vary, but patients can expect some swelling and discomfort for a few weeks after the procedure.

How Much Does Calf Augmentation Surgery Cost?
At Centre for Surgery, the pricing for calf augmentation can vary depending on several factors, but to give you a ballpark figure: one standard calf implant typically costs around £6,500, while two standard calf implants are around £9,000. If you’re interested in custom-made calf implants, the cost rises to about £12,000 for one implant and £16,000 for two.
It’s important to note that these prices are just a guideline and the actual cost could differ based on the complexity of your particular surgery. After you come in for your first consultation at our Baker Street clinic, you’ll receive a detailed quote that outlines the specific costs related to your individual treatment plan.
What Do These Costs Cover?
The quoted price for your calf implant surgery will cover several key expenses, including:
- The fees for the surgeon who will perform the procedure
- The fees for the anaesthetist who will make sure you’re comfortable and pain-free during surgery
- The cost of using the surgical facility, which includes the operating room and any required medical equipment
- Up to a year of follow-up visits to our clinic, so we can closely monitor your recovery and make any necessary adjustments

Additional Cal Augmentation Costs You Should Know About
Beyond the package price for the calf implants, there might be other costs you’ll need to consider:
- Prescribed pain medication: To help you manage any discomfort during your recovery, you may need to purchase prescribed medication.
- External medical tests: Sometimes, other medical tests are needed, and these would be an extra expense.
- Chaperone services: If you require additional support, you might incur the cost of chaperone services.
For those opting for custom-made calf implants, it’s important to highlight that a CT scan will be required for the customisation process. This CT scan isn’t included in the package price, so you’ll need to budget for it separately.
Is Investing in Calf Implants Worth It?
The decision to get calf implants is a highly personal one, but it’s an option that many consider to be a life-altering investment in their appearance and, by extension, their self-confidence. People from various backgrounds and lifestyles find themselves bothered by calves that they perceive as too thin or unevenly shaped. This can have a surprisingly far-reaching impact on your daily life, affecting your clothing choices, your willingness to engage in sports, and even your overall self-esteem.

For instance, let’s look at bodybuilders. They often reach a plateau in their calf muscle development despite rigorous training. For them, calf augmentation could be the next logical step, enabling them to achieve the symmetrical and muscular look they’ve been striving for, thereby boosting both their confidence and their competitive edge.
So what does calf implant surgery really bring to the table? Well, it offers a range of benefits:
- Increased Volume: The surgery adds fullness to the calves, helping to improve their overall appearance.
- Enhanced Definition: The implants can bring out the muscle contours that may be lacking, giving your calves a more sculpted look.
- Improved Symmetry: If one calf is noticeably smaller than the other, calf implants can restore a more balanced look.
- Psychological Benefits: Perhaps most importantly, having fuller, more balanced calves can significantly boost your self-esteem, making you feel more comfortable in your own skin.
- Expanded Lifestyle Choices: With improved self-esteem, you may find yourself more open to wearing different types of clothing, or participating in activities you might have shied away from before.
The procedure isn’t just about changing a part of your body; it can potentially transform how you see yourself and how you interact with the world around you. That said, it’s crucial to weigh these benefits against the costs and potential risks, as with any surgical procedure. Therefore, it’s highly advisable to consult with specialists, like our experienced surgeons at Centre for Surgery, to determine if calf augmentation is the right option for you.
