I have zero gluteal fold? (photo)

Question

I have been self conscious about my buttocks for a long time, since I was a teenager I have a saggy derrière, with lateral hollows compared to an old lady, this led me to workout, run, exercise and at times restrict my diet. Is there anything I can do, to better my buttocks, and create a gluteal fold, I feel so weird like my butt is a continuation of my leg!

Adam J. Oppenheimer, MD, FACS · Answer

Fat grafting can be an effective way to enlarge and lift the buttock, but it isn't always required.With good liposculpting, the buttock can be given a lifted and fuller appearance without injecting large quantities of fat. Specifically, the hips, flanks and gluteal folds can be aggressively treated with liposuction. If smartlipo is used, some skin tightening can also be created. Some of the fat can be harvested for injection, but this does not need to be the focus of buttock aesthetics. Sculpting the fat with liposuction is often sufficient.

The gluteal fold can be improved, the lateral  hollows can be filled, the buttock can be lifted and more projected - no problem.I perform about 500  Brazilian buttlifts each year, and this   
procedure is the most surgeon dependent plastic surgery procedure.  Find
 a  plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of   
Brazilian buttlifts each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's   
website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can   
deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

You may be a good candidate for a buttock augmentation. But remember, some buttocks do not have a clear take-off in the gluteal crease.

Firstly, I think you have a wonderful shape to work with.  I have done hundreds of buttock augmentation with fat grafting over the years, and you have great potential. With comprehensive liposuction to your waist, and fat transfer to the buttocks and hips, you should achieve a wonderfully enhanced "hour glass" figure!  Find an experienced surgeon you trust, and go for it!  Good luck!
