Am I still at risk of having a fat embolism if I get a fat transfer just to my hips?

Thank you so much for your question.
Any type of plastic surgery has too many risk we need to consider. There are not different between Fat embolism for a BBL and Hips, but this is not common after a Liposuction, please speak with your Surgeon about any concern you have prior your surgery. 
Best of luck,
Dr. Quiroz 

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well. based in your question Any type of plastic surgery has too many risk we need to consider. There are not different between Fat embolism for a BBL and Hips, but this is not common after a Liposuction.if you feel concerned discuss all about theme with your plastic surgeon.

I assume farting meant having a fat embolism although I had a good laugh reading the typo. Fat embolism rates are similar between injections into the hip and buttocks when injected in the subcutaneous plane (extremely low). When injected into the muscle the rates go up. So choose the procedure that meets your aesthetic wishes and choose an experienced ABPS surgeon and you will do well.Best

Fat embolism is exceedingly uncommon following liposuction of thighs and flanks .  It is more common in fractures of long bones, but even then much less than the occurrence of pulmonary emboli.  Significant pulmonary emboli after liposuction occur at a rate of less than 1 in 1000.  Fat emboli occur at a rate less than that.  No type of liposuction is safer in this respect.  The treatment for FE is largely supportive.

You are less likely to get a fat embolism if fat is injected to just your hips. What is important in this scenerio is does your hip dip continue into the lateral buttocks. If so, you may not get that smooth look if all the "dip" is not corrected.
