Fat Transfer to Hips - Possible to Correct? (Photos)

Dear Independent883271,

I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Dear Independant883271, thanks for sharing your pictures and concerns, after evaluate your pictures I can perfectly say that this can be corrected with a ultrasound guided Revision. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks. Dr. Luis Mejia.

It seems like what you’re noticing is an imbalance between your hips and thighs — something that can happen for a few reasons after a BBL. Sometimes, a patient gains a bit of weight after surgery, or too much fat is added to the hips without blending it smoothly into the upper thigh area. This can create a sharper transition and make the result look less natural than intended.There are two main ways to restore harmony to your shape. One option is a small, targeted liposuction around the hips to smooth and even out the contour where your hips meet your thighs. The other, which I usually find gives a softer and more natural result, is adding a bit of fat to the area between the lower hips and upper thighs. This approach helps create a seamless curve that flows beautifully and naturally — the kind of result where no one can tell you’ve had a BBL, only that your proportions look balanced and flattering.Every body is unique, so I’d want to assess your current shape and goals carefully before recommending the best option. With the right adjustments, it’s absolutely possible to achieve a more natural, elegant silhouette that feels right for you.

Yes, correction is possible. Fat grafting to the upper outer thighs and lower hips can create a smoother transition and improve the contour. Strategic liposuction of surrounding areas can also help blend the shape. A skilled revision BBL surgeon experienced in contour irregularities is key.
