Can Buttock Ptosis Be Cured by Fat Transfer?

Later Gator
I had liposuction of the thighs and buttock done to help my lower body fit my upper body. The doctor took off way to much and tried to "improve my gluteal crease." It resulted in loose skin and ptosis as well as indentations near my hip bones. Is there a way to fix that with fat grafting? Is there a way to get my money back if it resulted in a deformity?
