The harmonization of the quadriceps is an aesthetic procedure for remodeling the front thigh, focusing on the femoral muscle of the quadriceps.
“The goal is to improve the volume, the muscle definition and the firmness of the skin, usually through collagen biostimulators, such as poly-l-lactic acid or filler such as high density hyaluronic acid”, explains Thiago Martins, biomedical, master of aesthetic medicine.
This procedure had a growing question among patients who want aesthetic uniformity between the trunk and the lower limbs. It is necessary to be cautious, because the exaggeration can leave the exaggerated and disproportionate definition, which can cause dissatisfaction in those who do it.
The biomedical also underlines that it is essential to evaluate the harmony of the patient’s body.
“The disproportionate increase of the quadriceps, without considering the outline of the buttocks, thighs, life and subsequent knees, can generate an artificial and disproportionate aesthetic effect,” he says.
In some cases, the attempt to simulate muscle hypertrophy can lead to an evident disharmony. “The individualization of the therapeutic plan, compared to body biotype and anatomical limits, is fundamental,” he adds.
Although it is considered minimally invasive, the procedure has risks.
Among the main ones there are:
- edema
- Pain
- Hematomas
- infection,
- Nodules formation
- Late inflammatory reactions vascular complications.
“The application in deep muscle areas, with a large vascular network, requires technical training and a rigorous anatomical domain. It is important to strengthen that procedures with injection substances should be performed exclusively by qualified professionals, following the rules of Anvisa as regards the safety and indication of the product”, warns the expert.
How the recovery of the harmonization of the quadriceps is
Post-procedura is generally silent. There may be a slight discomfort, palpation pain and swelling in the first days.
“The recommendation is to avoid intense exercises and sun exposure for about a week. The aesthetic response is gradual, in particular with biostimulators, and can take weeks to obtain the result. The complementary sessions are common, respecting clinical intervals,” says the professional.
