Suggest Treatment Tissue Loss In The Leg

I was in a dirtbike accident 3 years ago, which resulted in a chunk being removed from the lower inside of my leg (just below the calf). I received a skin graft but still have a large indentation where the tissue is missing. I m a 24 yr old, 5 9 , active healthy female.Are there any type of surgeries out there that would help?

Hi,

It is not possible to guide you without seeing the defect of the muscle you are talking about, however, plastic surgery is capable of filling your defect.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
