Question

I hate this hump of fat above my butt and even as I’ve been losing weight it’s just getting more and more pronounced it gives my butt a hideous shape!! How can I get rid of it?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

this is extra fat and loose skin that would need to be improved with skinremoval and/or liposuction with heating.  consult us! start peptide therapy to lose more weight as well.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Liposuction of that area is usually very effective and can make a major difference in the appearance of the lower back and buttocks.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

The technique to get rid of that would be liposuction.  Liposuction can be done safely on an out-patient basis and can safely remove 10 lbs in one sitting.

Best Wishes,

Dear Cute215677,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

It appears that this area would respond well to liposuction however the area needs to be evaluated carefully by your surgeon in the office with complete history and physical before making a decision for liposuction.
