Bringing balance into inverted triangle body shape - I'm 124 lb and 5'7 for reference and I'd like to know how I can potentially fill in hip dips or have the appearance of wider hips with surgery . What would my options be?
Answer: On the skinny side… so, how I can potentially fill in hip dips? Excellent question. You’re actually a good patient for a BBL… if You understand your limitations. You do not have a lot of fat for dramatic results but you probably have enough fat to make your silhouette curvier. Liposuction on stomach, waist, and maybe even inner thighs should yield enough fat for fat transfer to the hips. 360 lipo with bbl to hips will give you a smaller waist and torso with wider hips for sure. It might not be dramatic but the hips to waist ratio will improve and it will make a difference! In any case, gaining a bit of weight before surgery and keeping it after surgery will give you even better results.

Answer: BBL Curves Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for a skinny BBL. The Skinny BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. In addition, if you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. Depending on your desired results, you may be asked to gain some weight. That said, the fat that is liposuctioned is injected into the buttocks and hips to give you projection and curves. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience with Skinny BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Hip dips Dear Plucky167583, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: BBL candidate Based on these photos you may expect nice improvement in the hands of an experienced board certified plastic surgeon. Word of mouth or a review of before and after photos on the website is a good starting point for surgeon selection. Good luck.
