​What procedure do I need to make my hips wider? (photo)

Your desires can be safely accomplished with fat grafting to your hips. Cost is dependent on operating room time and surgery complexity. Visit with a few plastic surgeons to educate yourself and find a staff your comfortable with.good luck

   As a plastic surgeon who does up to 12 or 15 BBLs a week, I perform fat transfer to the hips at the same time.  This can be a very effective and safe technique.Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts and
liposuction procedures each year. Look for great reviews and great

Thank you for the question and picture.The BBL procedure involves harvest fat from areas of your body where there is excess fat and injecting that fat carefully into the central zone of your buttock. In addition, it involves liposculpting the buttock to facilitate a more rounded look. The common donor sites for this procedure is your posterior waist/flanks, lateral thighs, back, waist, and anterior tummy. Please visit with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Wider hips at the level of the iliac crests can be achieved by the use of fat grafting. It may not be possible to achieve a 3 inch increase on each side but that would depend on how much fat you have to harvest and how much would survive afterwards. Hip implants are also available but the safest technique with the least risk of any problems would be fat grafting.

Thank you for the question.To best help you, a
physical examination or picture evaluation of your front, sides and back with no clothes on is required in order to
determine which procedures and techniques would be best for your case.Dr. Campos
