How do I get rid of deep injection dimples on my bum causing deformation?

Question

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

I encourage you to begin by visiting with an expert to evaluate the area.  If they are depressions in the buttocks you may be a candidate for fat injections.  If it is cellulite you can consider Qwo.  This treatment is done as a series of 3 injection sessions spaced 21 days apart.  It is FDA approved to treat moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks.

Ryan A. Stanton, MD · Answer

Depending on the number, the severity, the depth, and the amount of associated scar tissue, buttock dimples from injections or fat transfer may be treated with either subcusion release and fat grafting and/or direct excision and closure. Glad to be of help.

Mats Hagstrom, MD (license on probation) · Answer

Dimples cost by previous injections are formed from scar tissue that contracts and pulls in on the skin.

They do not respond well to adding volume since the problem isn’t a lack of volume but rather contractile scar tissue bands pulling on the skin.

Releasing the scar tissue while at the same time or adding small amounts with volume with fat transfer or filler’s is probably your best option.

Sometimes direct excision can work but this will leave some type of scar depending on your skin complexion.

These are not the easiest to treat. Some improvements can usually be had but it may not be possible to get a complete smooth skin surface.

Best,

Dear Kampala,
Injections can rarely cause dimpling.
Possibly due to injury of the subcutaneous fat in combination with cellulite.
Fat transfer with PRP can help fill, smooth and heal the areas.
Choose an expert in fat transfer.
Best.
