As temperatures rise, so do hemlines –
which means you no longer have jeans and trousers to conceal your
cankles. “Cankles” are the new muffin tops of lower legs; a clever nickname for thick lower legs that lack distinction
between the calf and the ankle. Whether your cankles are an unlucky genetic
gift, or caused by the few extra pounds you carry on your frame, here’re some
fitness, camouflage and medical remedies to make your cankles look like slender
ankles in no time.
Fitness Fix
Cankles are somewhat structural depending on genetics and
the shape of your legs.
Best advice I can give is to skip the salt, and maintain a healthy diet of leafy greens and
plenty of whole grains and keep your body fat percentage in a healthy
range by doing some form of exercise at least four days a week
Fake-it Fix
When you don’t have time to slim down, here’s a quick trick
to make your ankles look slimmer.
If you need to be in shorts fast, self-tanner like
St. Tropez Perfect Legs
is always a quick way to create the illusion that your legs are
smaller than they are.
Full-on Fix
Laser liposuction as an
outpatient procedure under I.V. sedation can easily reduce the bulge that some
people have in their ankles. The skin typically retracts well and the incisions
are easily hidden in the body’s natural contours in the sides of the ankles.
Because a procedure on such bony body parts requires delicacy, I use several
innovative forms of liposuction, including Da Vinci Lipo, in order to contour
and re-sculpture the area while providing the most beautiful results with
minimal scarring. Laser Lipo, used in combination with other forms of
liposuction or alone, is a procedure that uses laser light to liquefy fat and
tighten the surrounding skin. It involves less downtime and side-effects than
traditional liposuction and is particularly good for small areas of fat
deposits like the ankles. New technology that’s gentler and faster than ever
before not only allows the removal of fat, but also re-sculpts the body.
