Would Brazilian Butt Lift Help Fix my Hips? (photo)

I am a 20 year old female and I’m considering a Brazilian butt lift, but I’m not sure if it will fix my concerns.

My buttocks are fine, perky and full. I wouldn't mind them being a little bigger. I just have no hips and I feel as though it throws my whole silhouette off. (I also feel like I may be asymmetrical)

My measurements are 34-26-34. I would love for my measurements to be 34-24-37. Any suggestions? Would a Brazilian butt lift fix my hipless problem or should I consider another procedure?

You're a great candidate for liposuction and selective fat grafting!

Thanks for the question and for including a photo. It looks like he would be an excellent candidate for liposuction and then a strategic grafting of the fat that will be removed. Using a combination of techniques will allow you to attain a kind and flattering waist and will reshape the contour of your buttocks.

I'm sure about it!

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that your hips and buttocks are both fine. Yes, you may have some asymmetry, but asymmetry is very natural and probably 100% of us have asymmetries in our faces and bodies. You should save your money and don't forget that surgery is not only costly, it carries risks to your health. Good luck!

Fat transfer to the hips

You have the common lateral depression on your hips that is very common in some patients. This lateral depression (side depression) can be fixed with fat injection. As a matter of fact, fat injection during a Brazilian butt lift is not only injected into the buttocks but also on the hips. This will create a nice blend of the hips and butt resulting in nicer and fuller buttocks. I routinely inject fat on the hips during a Brazilian butt lift. This procedure can be tailored to the needs of the... more

I Recommend a Denver Buttock Lift

There are many good answers by other surgeons to your question, so I will focus my answer specifically on your concerns and the photo that you submitted (which is very helpful). In my Denver area practice, I believe that the combination of liposuction and fat transfer to the buttocks can provide powerful tools for improving the buttock aesthetics. I agree that the buttocks are "fine, perky and full," and can see some asymmetry with a somewhat imbalanced shape on the right.... more

You need fat transferred to hips

This is a cultural and personal taste. The answer is you can have the fat transferred to the indented hips. You do have good buttocks, but need a little at the hips to round the area. You have fat above the buttock, and the abdomen may also be a fat source for filling the hips.

You may be happy with Liposuction of the hips alone

By looking at your photo and reading your comments, it seems that your buttocks are full enough and firm enough. The fullness in your hips, though, is giving you more of a square shape in that area and detracting from your curves. By removing the excess fat from the hips with liposuction, your waistline with be enhanced and the transition to your buttocks will be more dramatic. You may use this fat to correct lack of fullness if there is some asymmetry in the buttock area but I think a... more

Yes

Hi there- I agree with my colleague- The Brazilian Butt Lift term describes a technique in which fat is liposuctioned from one area of relative excess and transferred to an area where more fulness is desired. In the case of the BBL, this is usually from the abdomen/hips/thighs to the buttock area, but the same technique can be used for other areas as well, as in the case of transferring to your hips. It is important that you find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with experience doing this,... more

Brazilian Butt Lift Techniques to Fix Hips

Thanks for the question unsureaboutit - You are correct that the same concept of fat transfer to your buttocks can be used to improve your hip contour. In my San Francisco area practice we routinely analyze and discuss the hips as a part of the Brazilian Buttock Lift. Fat transfer and selected liposuction can be a fantastic way to emphasize your curves. We also use these techniques for scar contour correction. Based on your picture it does seem like you have some asymmetry - in that the... more

Brazilian Buttlift and Hip Transfer

I usually perform the Brazilian buttlift and the fat transfer to hips at the same time, and this is a very common patient request. If you truly want to increase your hip measurements, fat transfer to the hips is the best idea to achieve this goal. Kenneth Hughes, MD Brazilian buttlift Los Angeles, CA
