Can the gluteal crease be recreated through Liposuction?
I had my posterior thigh banana rolls liposuctioned last month to disastrous effect. The surgeon left a band of fat running parallel to my gluteal crease (I think because he was afraid to go near it). The weight of the buttocks, which had been previously supported by the banana rolls, simply fell down into this band of fat and has obliterated my natural gluteal crease.
Can you recreate a gluteal crease that has fallen by liposuctioning up into and around the buttocks? I DO NOT need a butt lift, rather the reinstatement of my natural gluteal crease up where it used to be. But how can this be achieved?

A: It can possibly be improved by suctioning and replacing fat.
It is sometimes possible to fix this without removal of skin with a scar to lift the sagging portion. In other patients it might be possible to suction above the crease and replace fat in the area around the crease and buttock. It will depend on how much was removed and how much sagging there is.
