Tail bone naturally curves in

Kenneth R. Francis, MD answers: Buttocks enhancement with tailbone curved in?

How feasible would having fat injections in my buttocks be considering my tailbone is curved in and I have a "flat-appearing" behind?

Blue Eyes,

Not a great picture to evaluate your tail bone issue, but it may be a moot point.  Everyone's tailbone naturally curves in. This certainly does not exclude you from being a candidate for buttock enhancement with fat injection. The picture does have some redemption in showing that you do have enough fat in the midsection for harvesting.

Of course, other factors would need to be evaluated before a final determination about your qualifications for surgery could be made. See your board certified plastic surgeon for a full consultation. Good luck!

Buttock augmentation can be performed using either implants or autologous fat grafting. This may help the area of the "tailbone" that you are complaining about.
