Here's another Korean standard of beauty that you might not have been familiar with:
Korean women like smooth, slender legs. As in, defined and muscular calves are a no-no. This might actually be something you haven't even given a single thought to in the past, but in Korea, defined calves are considered quite unattractive. And I might be generalizing a bit here, but in my opinion I think Koreans just like to look naturally slender, rather than toned and fit. They want to seem like they didn't need to make an effort to look skinny.
Strange, maybe funny side story: when I was in middle and high school here in Korea, I had to go on a 10 minute hike to get to class, because the school was literally located in a mountain. A very modern mountain, cleared of trees and filled with buildings and roads and stuff, but still a mountain nevertheless. And rumor had it that a lot of students avoided attending that school because they feared their calves would get too big and defined. Indeed, girls propping one calf on the other thigh and furiously massaging it, hoping to "dissolve" the muscles there was quite a common sight to see during class. That's how conscious everyone was about the shape of their legs.
Anyway. Smooth, curvy, slender legs obviously look nice and feminine; there's no doubt about that. Girls in Korea have taken plenty of measures to obtain this perfect leg shape, constantly massaging their calves with their hands, glass bottles, or some machine at a lot of fitness clubs.
And well, to be honest, I don't know how much of these really have effect, since the only way to reduce muscle is to not use them, and we can't just stop walking around until our leg muscles shrink. It doesn't work like that.
Luckily, botox injections on the calves are known to do the trick. Botox can actually have many more uses than just smoothing wrinkly skin - it blocks signals from the muscles, which keeps it from contracting. One of these many applications can be paralyzing calf muscles to reduce the overall size. This can be a real beacon of hope for people who have bulging calves, and can't fit their legs into that gorgeous pair of boots. Now, you just might be able to!
The director of one of our Renewme Skin Clinic branches received the injection for herself. Check out how her legs turned out:
I need to make sure you know, that this injection will not reduce the overall circumference of your legs. It might, but the actual purpose is just to make the leg shape smoother instead of muscular and defined. Don't expect your legs to shrink a few inches - it's not a magical injection. It will make your legs look prettier, we can guarantee that.
And how long is the procedure, you might ask?
Maybe about 10 minutes. That's it! No anesthesia needed, just an injection, and boom, you're done. There aren't any side effects, either; you might feel a bit sore, like you would feel after a long workout, but that's temporary and it's very, very bearable.
So what are you waiting for? If this is the treatment for you, book an appointment today. :)
