Which is better for hip dips- fat transfer surgery or hip dip fillers? (Photo)

Allow me to answer your question as best i can based upon your photo. However, please keep in mind that an in-person consultation with physical exam is first necessary before any legitimate evaluation or final surgical recommendations are made.

In general, cosmetic hip implants are the most reliable, predictable, and permanent option for filling in the hip dips and creating more of that feminine hourglass figure, whether slim or not. On the other hand, fat transfer to the hip area tends to survive quite poorly in most patients and thus produces only short term results (often less than 10-12 months). Injections/fillers such as Sculptra are cost prohibitive, short lasting and possibly deadly in high volumes or such as silicone/PMMA/hydrogels/etc are cheap but extremely dangerous and a personal commitment to a life or serious sometimes deadly consequences. Typically hip implants are best custom designed and created for each individual patient’s anatomy. Because an extremely few number of board-certified plastic surgeons perform this procedure, make sure you seek consultation with a reputable and experienced cosmetic hip implant specialist. You may have to travel a long distance from home to find this particular surgeon. Glad to help.

Dear n.u.r.,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, fat transfer is a great option for hip dips. 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.
