Take it from someone who has all the tools available to them to sculpt the body, and who also has extensive experience with Sculptra and Bellafill injections into the buttock/hip dip region. First, if you are going to endeavor with a filler, Sculptra is the wrong product; its temporary. Bellafill is safe and permanent. I've used it in the face and hands for almost 20 years and have noted persistent results and no nodules or migration. Second, and most importantly, these fillers are priced for the face, that is to say that expected use is in the range of a few syringes (Bellafill) or vials (Sculptra). Both companies had a temporary reduction in price right around the pre-pandemic period in recognition of their increased use for the buttock, but they are back to their usual pricing, which is to say in a word, astronomical. If I were to charge you only the cost of 10 boxes of Bellafill, five syringes of filler and a total volume of 4 cc per box, or 40 cc total, it would be around $30000. I can show you real invoices. Do you know what 40 cc would look like in your hip dips (20 cc per buttock)? It would look like very little was done. For that price, you could have hi def lipo of your waist and hips (which I can see has some fat), and possibly abdomen, and get a far better result. And not just because more fat could be grafted into the dips, but because the fat over your hip muscles (extensor fascia lata, gluteus minimus, and gluteus medius) would be removed, effectively reducing your 'hip'. The combination of filling and reducing is far more powerful visually. Don't be fooled by high profile practitioners with their celebrity clientele claiming patient satisfaction. It just isn't true.
