Discoloration on both hips (right hip is worse). Can it be from fat transfer? (Photos)

Asked By:Maryam127

I am 5mpo from my Lipo 360/bbl. A few weeks ago, I noticed some speckled bruising on both hips that hasn't gone away. I never had this months after my procedure so I don't know if the fat transfer caused this? I scheduled arm lipo with another fat transfer for my hip dip area for Jan 2024. I did see a dermatologist on this& he thinks it may be Erythema Ab Igne (but he was not sure). The area isn't painful, raised, itchy, etc. Just flat on my skin. Would another fat transfer make it worse?
