Hi, I'm 5'5" and 122 lbs with a bmi ~ 120.8. I have exagerated hit dips and am very straight. No matter how much I work out I can't seem to effect my waist size or to fill out my hips dips to the degree that I want. I tried sculptra to my left hip dip. 4 vials the first time and then 8 vials 6 weeks later. It did not add volume the way I was hoping. Would a liposuction and a fat transfer work better and is that possible with my figure? Thank you in advance
