Hi! I have very obvious hip dips/love handles (and cellulite, more pronounced on my right side). I'm 5'2 and usually 118-120 lbs (124 now), no kids. I'd like a treatment that'll make a significant difference but will look natural & not exaggerated. I've read about fat grafting & renuva/sculptra injections but I'm not sure which of these options would work best for my body type. I'm in SoCal but willing to travel. Thank you!

Answer: Liposuction and fat grafting Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you are a great candidate for waistline contouring liposuction of your abdomen, flanks, and lower back. Fat grafting to the hip dip area can be performed at the same time. This can greatly improve your overall shape with a smaller waist. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.
