I first noticed I had a buffalo hump at the age of 9. I am now 24 years old weigh about 100 and am around 4’ 11”. When I touch it, it feels like fat and bone. I recently had work on it but I am not satisfied with my results. I would like to know my options/ professional opinions. Thank you
Answer: Buffalo hump therapy Fatty and fibrous tissues that are part of buffalo hump can be treated with various advanced forms of liposuction.Further liposuction, or even better, BodyTite are used to remove fat cells that are stubborn to diet and exercise. Not only can the fat be removed but the skin can also be tightened. I have been performing BodyTite Liposuction for over 7 years and it is s great technique for fat removal as well as skin tightening.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko (Fellow, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery)

Answer: Buffalo Hump Removal--VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture, ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode BodyTite, fat grafting For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode BodyTite and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the best result for removing a buffalo hump. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Treatment of buffalo hump Very frequently localized deposit of fat (lipoma) is the cause of this deformity. It is possible to shape and reduce it with liposuction (what may be the method used in your recent surgery?). You should wait at least 6 months after recent surgery before considering any other surgery. In some cases direct removal with scar placed over the lesion is best treatment. Good luck.
