No hips, no glory?

Kenneth R. Francis, MD answers: Brazilian butt lift vs. Butt Implants - Which is better for hips?

I am thinking of getting a Brazilian butt lift. I am 19 years old now & I have no hips at all, in fact my hips seem to sink in. I am 33" in the hips. I would love my measurements to be 34-24-37, right now I'm 34-26-33. My butt does not sag, it's perky. I have a lot of cheek but no hips. How should I go about this? Would implants be better?

Your concerns seem to be more about your hips than your buttocks. The buttocks per say don't contribute to the hip measurement, so I don't know if buttock implants would even be an option to achieve your goal. Fat transfer, i.e. Brazilian butt lift, could be performed with better effect on the hips. Of course, a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon would better identify your needs and goals.
