How can I remove lump of fat on the back of my leg/buttock area? (Photos)

emmylouuJan 28, 2026

I have a "lump" of fat in this area and despite plenty of exercise and good diet it won't go away. Even at my thinest I've always had this bulge. What is my best option to eliminate it?

Liposuction to the breasts is reasonable if you are trying to reduce the size of the breasts modestly. Liposuction is a great way to remove fatty tissue, but it doesn't do much to tighten the skin, so just like anywhere else on the body, if you liposuction too much, you can get contour...

You probably are still seeing the effects of some mild swelling after removing your faja. It can take several more months before that swelling goes away completely.

There is nothing that will make a noticeable difference in that skin overhang short of having it surgically removed. While devices like Bodytite and Renuvion are effective, they can only produce mild to moderate skin retraction.

This is likely due to technical issues with the liposuction that was performed. The only suggestion I would have is to perhaps consider liposhifting with an experienced liposuction surgeon, though even that may be difficult to perform if you have a lot of scar tissue.

Thank you for your question. Smartlipo and Trusculpt are two options to reduce fat in arms. Smartlipo is a minimally invasive procedure where you melt the fat and tighten the skin with a laser then the melted fat is suctioned out. Trusculpt is non-invasive and targets up to an inch of fat...
