I have very bad hip dips and narrow hips. But I’m very slim. What procedure would be best for me? (Photo)

Thanks for the question.

In this regard, I recommend you waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour.

Finally, I suggested take the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection, is that we know as "Brazilian Butt Lift" (BBL).

Kind regards

Patients who want a BBL do not necessarily want a large butt but a subtle projection that fits their anatomy. They want more contouring of waist, hips, and buttocks based upon their anatomy.There is a broad range of physiques that will be appropriate. The thinner patient requires an expert at liposuction to remove as much fat as possible while leaving the skin smooth. I have liposuctioned models and thin patients with good results. Liposuction will remove the excess fat on your sides, abdomen, and back and make the waist as small as possible. The fat harvested can be transferred to the buttocks to improve roundness and projection as well as create an hourglass shape. A skilled board certified plastic surgeon can accomplish in 2 hrs what cannot be accomplished by a lifetime in the gym.

Dear Emilyjoannah,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Based on your pictures, you are a great candidate for liposuction with BBL, and I think you'll get very good results.
Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You can improve your abdomen, hips, back and flanks, and of course your buttock, to give you a nice heart shape.
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 33 or less.
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Hello and thank you for the question and photos. Whenever a BBL is considered, you have to look at available fat, the size and shape of the butt and the frame of the patient. Skin tone is also a key factor. Based on your photos, you would be an excellent candidate for a BBL. You are thin, so a huge butt is not a good idea nor is it possible with the fat you have available.
I agree your hip dips are very prominent, and that seems to be where you deposit fat. Any presurgery weight gain should be done quickly and right before surgery to give the best available fat for a transfer.
If you can gain a couple more KG, it will make the result much better.
I generally avoid butt implants. I think the technology and techique for this is still in the early phase and there are too many complications associated with implants, that if you can gain weight and do a traditional bbl that is the best option.
This procedure is done outpatient, takes me about 2-3 hours, and you will need 2 weeks off of work for recovery. About 80% of the fat remains, so you will be slightly smaller 6 months later. You need to avoid any exercise for 1-2 months and absolutely no sitting on your butt for 2 months.
It's a good idea to avoid any smoking, and to increase your protein intake and vitamins, especially vitamin D, C, and Zinc. There is growing evidence that shows patients with low vitamin D levels have a compromised immune system and are at higher risk to illness from Covid19.
Best to you.

You would benefit from a BBL, fat grafting to the buttock and lateral hips. Based on your pictures, you are an excellent candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). The optimal BBL outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
