I have had shots in both sides of the upper butt cheek but this side was not st all recent . Please help. Can it be fixed ?? Also, who should I see to help me fix this ? what is it!?
Answer: How to Fix Soft-Tissue Contour Depressions: Woke Up With Depression in Buttock I don't know how a depression like this could appear suddenly, but in person exam and a good history may shed some light on that. Assuming that this a benign contour depression, such as could occur after trauma or an immunization, the treatment would be fat grafting. There are many techniques harvesting, preparation and re-injecting fat as a graft, but basically it involves harvesting some fat with liposuction from where you do not need it and taking it will not cause a depression, cleaning and filtering it and reinjecting it into the depression in one or more sessions. Usually works quite well. You should consult a board certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Butt implant? It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape implant you will require to best match your ideal butt image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the existing base width of your buttock will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. Liposuction of your lower back and fat transfer is also helpful as an adjunct to implants. Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon.

Answer: Woke up with huge dent in right butt cheek of course it is highly usual for something like this to happen just overnight without any pre-incident trauma to the area or injections (such as cortisone). It would depend on a more thorough history over the last several days or weeks as well as a physical exam to better assess what is going on and give recommendations from there. If it persists over the next 3+ months then fat transfer may be considered. Glad to help.
