The short answer

What is calf reduction, and which option fits?

Calf reduction slims muscular calves. Calf Botox relaxes the gastrocnemius muscle temporarily, while non-incisional calf reduction (비절개 종아리퇴축술) reduces the nerve supply to part of the muscle for a longer-lasting effect without cutting the skin.

At YAAN Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, non-incisional calf reduction is ₩1,490,000 for women and ₩1,690,000 for men (first treatment); calf Botox (100 units) is ₩290,000 with Xeomin.

Honest suitability

Who Calf Reduction suits, and who it doesn't

Often a good fit

  • Muscular, bulky calves
  • Calves that stay large despite diet

  • Trying Botox first
  • Ankle and soleus contouring

Probably not the first choice

  • Calves large from fat or bone
  • Athletes needing full calf power
  • Neuromuscular disease
  • Pregnancy
  • Unrealistic expectations
How it works

Muscle, reduced

Calf Botox: temporary, 4–6 months; see body Botox.
