Can a fat transfer be performed to hips and thighs only without touching the butt?

Question

I’m a skinny girl with very narrow hips and would like my shape improved as much as possible. Everyone wants a bigger ass but for the most part I am pretty happy with my rear and would prefer not to touch it I think my main flaw is the narrow hips and i hope it Is possible to transfer belly fat to The thigh and hips only without having to touch the buttock. I also hope that hips would require less fat than what would be needed for the buttocks. Also I am hoping that fat transfer can be performed on the lower portion of the hip and outter thigh to give a more natural and realistic result, sort of like how some women have saddle bags id Like my hips on the lower portion rather than sitting too high. can this procedure be done ? Are their any doctors who do this kind of procedure ?

Thanks so much for your question,

Yes, a fat transfer can absolutely be performed to the hips and thighs only, without touching the buttocks. This is a valid and increasingly requested approach.

Often referred to as hip dip fat grafting, lateral hip augmentation, or thigh contouring with fat transfer.

It focuses on improving hip width, outer thigh shape, and overall lower-body balance without adding volume to the gluteal muscles or butt. Its usually requested on Patients who want curves without a bigger butt or Patients seeking a more natural or athletic silhouette.

Sincerely, 
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol

Fat grafting can be done to any part of the thigh.
One of the key variables that determines if the procedure can be successful is if the patient has sufficient amount of tissue to graft into.
I referred to this as ”host tissue”. If you’re outer thigh is thin with skin over muscle and very little subcutaneous fat than fat transfer will not work.
It’s possible to double the thickness of subcutaneous fat in one successful round of fat transfer if done correctly.
For some people, the fat layer, simply too thin in which case it doesn’t justify doing the procedure.
It’s not only the amount of fat we grafted, but also the amount of tissue we grafted into.
