Nice butt w/ no hips, apple. Considering fat transfer from my love handles & back to my hips and partial areas of my butt. No drastic changes, as natural looking as can be, 2-4" increase the hips to compliment my butt. My size now: 34-33-39. W/FG, I wld like to be: 34-30-42/43. W/ additnl light diet and exercise, ideally I'd like to achieve: 34-27-43. Any experts in this specifically? What type of FG is permanent? What is Autologous FG w/ PRP? Can re-absorbtion be avoided? Thanks
