Which procedure would help me achieve a more symmetrical butt? (photos)

Question

My buttocks is assyemtrical- the right side is bigger than the left. I had liposuction completed 10 years ago to remove fat from the right gluteal fold however it has not been successful with giving more symmetry. Is there a procedure that can help give more symmetry?This has been a massive struggle of mine for so many years… appreciate any and all feedback.

Thank you for your question. If you want to achieve a more symmetrical butt, you have two options: BBL or butt implants. BBL involves the removal of fat from other areas of the body through liposuction, which is then transferred to the buttocks. This procedure can help enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of your buttocks while also sculpting the areas where fat is removed. BBL is known to produce natural-looking outcomes. However, if you don't have enough body fat to undergo BBL, silicone butt implants may be an alternative. These implants are firm and flexible, resulting in a more pronounced and symmetrical augmentation. The choice between these two methods depends on factors such as the amount of accessible fat, the degree of asymmetry, and your personal preferences.

Dear Sociable508117,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

It is very likely that asymmetric gluteal crease is layout issue in your asymmetry. Correction can sometimes be very challenging. It is important to find a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this problem. Good luck.

Symmetry or the lack of is typically based on bone structure.
Based on your picture, it looks like maybe one of your legs is longer than your brother.
I think your right leg and thigh may be longer than the left side. 
You may want to have your leg length measured.
I don’t think this is going to be corrected with liposuction or manipulation of soft tissues.
If one leg is substantially longer than you may want to consider shoe inserts, especially if you’ve had any issues with back problems.
Best,

Based on your photos, a BBL is likely the best option for you. Rather than attempting to decrease the size of the larger buttock with lipo, a BBL will allow a plastic surgeon to plump the smaller buttock. A skilled and experienced surgeon should be able to help you achieve symmetry in this way. Of course, you will need to have a consultation with a plastic surgeon to confirm that a BBL will do the trick. A reputable surgeon won’t make any promises until they have actually examined you.
