How to Fix Indented Hips? (photo)

Hello,

There are actual indentations and there are the appearance of indentations.  In the black and white photo I would argue that the person has more of an appearance of indentations.  If the excess fat of the flank and lower outer thighs were to be reduced the "indentation" in between the two areas of fullness would not be present.  Therefore, the appearance of indented hips usually requires liposuction of the areas of fullness on either side of the "indentation" while ac actual indentation is often best treated with fat grafting.

All the best,

The shape of the hips can often be quite variable.  Rarely does a person have a perfect shape.  There may be irregularities or indentations that occur naturally. The best procedure to smooth your hips would be a combination of liposuction and fat transfer.  Liposuction can contour the areas that protrude a bit, and then the fat can be processed and injected into the indented areas.  The fat can be built up over a few sessions until your result is just right.  Be sure to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon before scheduling surgery.
