Ah, those ladies' legs! And in the Middle Ages, and in our time they are a matter of admiration. They inspire romantics poets to write whole odes, move on the desperate deeds of loving daredevils, it is because of the cute slender leg that a whole battle can break out, even between bosom friends. But there is another side to this feminine charm. Not all women have perfect legs. And it's better to say that there are no ideal legs at all. But there are crooked legs, and this is a real tragedy for some of the fair sex. While some are flirting with men on beaches and discos, others drape themselves with long skirts and are struggling over the question of how to fix their crooked legs.
And are they really crooked?
And actually, why did you decide that the legs of some model from the podium are smoother and more beautiful than yours? After all, each woman has her own unique beauty, and there can not be a framework here. But if you still doubt, then we offer you the right tool, how to determine if you have curves or not. For this you need to pass one very simple test. Put your feet together and look at them in the mirror. Normally, the legs touch each other in the area of the ankles, the middle part of the lower leg, the knees and the middle part of the thigh. Between these points of contact are formed gaps, called "windows". The first "window" is formed between the feet and ankles, the second - above the ankles, the third - over the middle part of the shins, and the fourth - above the knees. And the last "window" should be the narrowest. If your result is exactly this, then you have nothing to worry about. Your feet are perfect. And it does not matter that their length is not great, most importantly, they are proportionally stacked. If there are deviations, and your legs, in fact, curves, you need to think about what to do with them and how to fix it.
Can I correct the crooked legs?
So, what to do and how to hide or straighten the crooked legs. In many respects this depends on the nature and extent of the problem in each particular case.
In fact, the curvature of the legs is divided into true and false. True curvature is a very unsightly picture. Shins in this case take an x-shape or an o-shape. And this is not even a problem of aesthetics. Such legs are very sore, early arthrosis develops, a person can even become disabled. Here, an unambiguous correction and correction of the curves of the legs will be an operation on the bones of the shin. There is no other alternative, unfortunately not.
It is quite another matter - a false curvature. It occurs much more often and consists in uneven development of the calf muscles. Another cause of this phenomenon may be excessive fullness or thinness of the legs, as well as an incorrect distribution of adipose tissue. And what to do and how to correct the crooked legs in this case? There are 2 methods of getting rid of this annoying defect. The first is rapid with the help of plastic surgery. The second is prolonged with the help of special exercises. Which of the two methods of correction and correction of the curved legs you choose, decide for yourself. We only talk about the pros and cons of each of them.
Plastic surgery
Currently, there are 2 main areas of plastic correction of the curved legs. One of them is a keroplasty. Apply it more appropriately in the disproportionately developed muscles of the shin. In general, the operation looks like this: a small incision is made under the knee and a silicone is introduced into the necessary place - the relief of the foot is leveled, and the scar is virtually invisible. The advantage of this option is speed. The next day the patient leaves home, and after 4 weeks can go to work. Back to full load can be 5-6 weeks after the operation. Less is possible side effects in the form of a poorly healing suture or intolerance to silicone.
The second option is lipofilling or transplantation of your own subcutaneous fat. The advantages of this operation are the speed of achievement of the effect and the wide possibilities of correction. Minuses, in general, no, fat is your own.
Exercises
But the false curvature of the legs can be adjusted and with the help of special exercises. Here are the simplest:
- Stand up and do 10 sit-ups. Relax for 10 seconds and again 10 sit-ups. Again rest 10 seconds and again 10 sit-ups.
- Lie on your back, bend your knees and rest your feet in the wall. For 10 seconds, squeeze the wall forcefully, then rest for 5 seconds and squeeze again. Exercise 15 times.
- Stand up straight, heels together, socks apart. Try to connect the knees and reach the correct position of the legs. When this is already easy to get, then carry out the exercise from the position of the socks together and the heels together.
