Doctor Suggested Lipo for Outer Thighs? (photo)
Dear doctors, I went to a plastic surgeon to ask if he could fill a dimple I have on my right buttock, especially when I strain myself. I am also quite unsatisfied with my saddlebags, although I train, and he proposed to do lipo on the outer thighs. Would you recommend me that, are there any risks involved? I am underweight (5'45''/ 97 lb) and aged 26. Thank you!

Thigh lipo and a dimple?
The only for anyone to make a recommendation is for you to go and see them for a full consultation. However, some generalizations can be drawn from the photos you submitted. There are 3 operations you might want to consider: liposuction alone, liposuction and fat injections, and fat injections to the dimple only. I have seen the most success with the combination of fat removal and injection. In reality, there's not much fat to remove and you should not expect to be much thinner than what...

Dimples and Liposuction and Correction

Always get three opinions from surgeons that are Fellows...

Liposuction Recommendation
At your size, I can't justify recommending liposuction. The amount of adipose you will retrieve from your thighs is minimal. Liposuction on a figure as thin as yours could result in bumpiness that is worse than the dimple was to begin with.

Liposuction of thighs
Thanks for the photos. It is hard to say what to do for you thigh without ane xam. Certainly if you are having outer thigh lipo, then this fat can be used to fill out the concerning dimple.

Lipo for Outer Thighs?
If you could benefit from outer-thigh liposuction to improve your saddlebags, it should be possible to transfer the harvested fat from your outer thighs into your dimple to give you a much more pleasing thigh contour that you desire. Without the benefit of examining you, it sounds from your history that you would be an excellent candidate.

Lipo for Outer Thighs and dimple over hips
Hi,I think dimple on your outer hip can be corrected by fat grafting of some of the fat that is removed from your outer thighs by liposuction.Procedure is called liposculpture.This opinion is based on the two images submitted and should not be treated as consultation.A proper clinical examination is required to give a meaningful opinion.

Hello
Without an exam it’s very hard to determine whether you need lipo in the area of concern. From your pictures it’s very hard to tell. If you are unhappy with your saddle bags then yes, do the lipo.
