I feel down the stairs and got a dent on my buttocks. What options do I have to treat this? (Photos)

Well, if you are also considering or willing to have a bit of a augmentation in your buttocks, with more fullness and perkiness/projection, then the most reliable and permanent option would be buttock implants. Please keep in mind that an extremely few number of board certified plastic surgeon specialize in buttock implants, so you may have to travel far and away from home to find this particular type of surgeon. Glad to help.

Thank you for your inquiry! You can fill in the dent using sculptra, other fillers, or fat transfer to smooth that out. I recommend scheduling a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon like myself and we can create a surgical plan to best achieve your goals!

BBL, targeted fat graft, Sculptra or Renuva is what I would recommend without taking a look in person. I think BBL would be ok but perhaps a bit much unless bigger buttocks is what you would prefer. If not, then just fat graft targeting the dent. Wire subcision can also help release the area and fat graft can keep it from collapsing in again and forming a dent. Sculptra is ok but Renuva is also a shelf item that may work better. Best Wishes!!

Considering that fat necrosis/scar is the cause of your condition, I believe that fat grafting would be the most appropriate way to correct it. However, considering that is relatively small area, injection of filler like Sculptra, may be viable temporary treatment. Good luck.

Dear Krystlanne,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello Dear , To give you a more precise and concrete answer, we must evaluate you more personally and carry out necessary and required medical analyzes to determine if a BBL is really the solution, but according to what we can see, it can be fixed with BBL.

There are 3 options: #1. minimal lipo of 200+++ cc's with directed fat transfer (macro fat type), fee $4,000; #2. injections of Sculptra/Radeisse combo in 2-3 sessions 100 cc's of mixture into area. Each session $2,000; #3. combo of #1 & #2. fee $5,000.

I agree that your trauma most probably caused some fat necrosis leading to a dent. I do not feel that Sculptra will change this area as well as a fat transfer.

It would be helpful to see pictures from different views.

To me this looks like cellulite and whether it is just baseline cellulite or fat necrosis with scar tissue information in some ways doesn’t change the surgical approach.

It’s probably not a loss of volume but rather contractile forces pulling in on the skin.

Subsicion with the addition of volume whether it be fillers or small amounts of grafted fat it’s probably your best shot though no guarantee that it will respond.

To me this looks like baseline cellulite and perhaps you noticed it after the injury.

Seeing other views could help confirm this.

Simply adding volume is most likely not going to fix the problem.
