Does an outer thigh lift/lower body lift help with a dropped buttock/lower gluteal fold? I had saddlebag/outer thigh lipo 1 year ago ( he did NOT touch my banarolls!) which made 1 butt cheek ( the one with the tattoo above) drop/slope downwards because it seems the support is totally gone because of the outer thigh lipo. I don’t want a butt tuck ( incisions in the butt crease) but I wonder if a LBL could pull the one cheek up? You can see it slopes down on 1 side.
Answer: Asymmetrical body You must understand that our body is naturally asymmetrical, and surgery very difficultly will achieve perfection.

Answer: Drooped Buttock/Lower Gluteal Fold Thank you for your question regarding whether a buttock lift can correct asymmetry in gluteal or banana roll folds. In regards to your individual question, it appears in your preoperative pictures (the first picture), you have a scar over your hips (or maybe this is a tan line). I wonder, did you have a prior body lift? Either way, a primary or revision 360 circumferential lower body lift can correct for asymmetries of the infragluteal fold. This would be with asymmetric elevations of the buttock. In your case, I would pull more on the lower side. I would not suggest doing any more liposuction because it may make this condition worse. The 360 circumferential lower body lift takes between 4 to 6 hours to complete. Plan on a 2 to 3-week recovery. Please seek an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who has performed hundreds of body lifts. Thank you for your question regarding whether a 360 circumferential lower body lift can correct for lower buttock asymmetries. Good luck.

Answer: Is a lower body lift indicated? Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note a minimal amount of asymmetry of the hips and buttocks. This could be potentially improved with a lower body lift but at the expense of potentially significant surgical scarring of the superior buttocks and hips (usually camouflaged by clothing, bathing suits). It's a trade-off...and may not be worth it. Best wishes...
