Asian Calf Reduction by Selective Neurectomy

Surgically severing the nerve to the medial gastrocnemius muscle is a quick operation that will induce gradual shrinkage of the medial gastrocnemius muscle.

Although the circumference of the calf may be reduced approximately 0-3 cm (fairly insignificant), the precise location and amount of that reduction are unpredictable.

Over time, the other calf muscles (lateral gastrocnemius and soleus) can hypertrophy or overdevelop to compensate for the lost muscle function, an effect that may result in a bowing-out and unevenness in calf contour.

Finally, the risk of injuring the nerves to the calf's other two muscles is high and can result in a gait disturbance.
